This was Ton Van Bergeyk's first solo guitar album (recorded in 1973). The focus is on the Classic Rags of the early 1900s. Ton's arrangements have received worldwide praise and for the last 30 years he has been an underground guitar hero to aspiring fingerstyle guitarists.

Review: Simply Amazing! Ton van Bergeyk's classic album "Famous Ragtime Guiter Solos" now available on CD for the first time and sounding just as good as it did on vinyl back in the seventies. The release of this CD will undoubtedly be welcomed by many guitar fans worldwide, providing an opportunity once again to hear the superb interpretation of these ragtime classics by the man who became known as the wizard of the strings. Included on the CD is a PDF file containing the tab music files for all tracks. A superb album indeed and let's hope that Ton's remaining albums also appear on CD in the not too distant future. -- D.J. Mackay/Amazon Customer Review

Review: Best cd for rag time fans. I listen to a lot of ragtime guitar music, but this is the best I have heard. Buy this cd and you won't regret it. Comes with pdf file so you can get tab for all songs. – megbrazos/Amazon Customer Review
