Solace

I thought about uploading a piece of music for tonight, from Scott Joplin. Most will remember it as part of the soundtrack of The Sting, a classic crime movie and one of my favourite. Joplin's ragtime classics were rearranged and played by Marvin Hamlisch. My father had an old record of the score, which my brothers and I used to play over and over again... playing poker. I used not to care too much about Solace when I was younger, now I love its melancholic feel. Perfect for any quiet night.
