Hey Oufidel:

That was great, thanks for posting. I especially liked the harp guitar, I'd never seen one played before.

Wow, this is another feather in Weenie Campbell's forum cap!  I would have never found this just trawling YouTube.  Outfidel, thanks for hipping us into this.

Wonderful, thanks!  (How's he get all them notes outta there when he's playing ragtime?)

That's awesome! I'd always wanted to see a harp guitar in action!

Really nice.

I like how right at the end,- without even thinking about it (unless?...) -
he demonstrates perfectly with the little martin exactly why the harp guitar never caught on

Cool instrument but I'm not a fan of classic rock.

Neither am I;  I have to admit I wasn't aware of the track's origins. I just reckon the arrangement demonstrates the tonal range of the instrument very well.
