	Scott Joplin's ragtime classic arranged by Steve Ettinger for the Intellivision videogame console. An excerpt from this arrangement was used in Steve's unreleased 1982 Intellivision game "Magic Carousel." Here, finally, the full version makes its debut.
	CD: Intellivision in Hi-Fi   Label: Retrotopia Records Credits: Written by Scott Joplin. Arranged by Steve Ettinger. Performed on the Intellivision console.
	Story Behind the Song This was intended to be the title screen music for the Intellivision videogame, "Magic Carouosel," designed by Steve Ettinger and Joe [Ferreira] King. Steve, a huge ragtime fan, laboriously arranged Scott Joplin's classic for the Intellivision (which can only play three notes at once) and programmed the code into the game. Unfortunately, there wasn't room for the complete arrangement, so only about a fourth of it wound up in the final game. To add insult to injury, the Marketing department decided not to release the game. It sat on the shelf from 1982 until 2001, when Intellivision Productions finally published it in the CD-ROM collection "Intellivision Rocks." Now, Intellivision Productions is releasing Steve's original arrangement of the song here and on the album "Intellivision in Hi-Fi." P
