Ragtime legend Max Morath says "Tricky Fingers is simply a stunning piece of work." Jazz pianist Tony Caramia calls Martin Spitznagel a "young man who approaches Ragtime with the vitality, strength, enthusiasm, gusto, and spirit that it deserves." And reviewer Jack Rummel writes that Tricky Fingers is "an impressive first recording," adding that Spitznagel's "interpretations are anything but stereotypical -- one hardly knows what to expect next!" Anyone who has heard Martin Spitznagel play knows the energy and imagination he brings to all of his performances.

Spitznagel approaches ragtime not as a historical curiosity bound in a particular era, but as a living music as fresh and vibrant today as it ever was. He has been featured at dozens of ragtime and jazz festivals across the United States, including the West Coast Ragtime Festival (Sacramento, California), the San Antonio Ragtime Festival (San Antonio, Texas), the Scott Joplin International Ragtime Festival (Sedalia, Missouri), and the Alexandria Bay Ragtime Festival (Alexandria Bay, New York). Tricky Fingers showcases not only Spitznagel's deep interest in the music of Eubie Blake, but ably demonstrates his remarkable versatility in performing music by Scott Joplin, Billy Mayerl, and George Gershwin alongside more recent ragtime-inspired compositions by Robin Frost, Adam Swanson, and Spitznagel himself (including his engaging "Red Elephant Rag," winner of the 2007 World Championship Old-Time Piano Playing Contest's New Rag Competition).

Included with the CD is a beautiful 12-page full-color booklet with photographs, reproductions of sheet music covers, extensive notes by the artist, and an introduction by Tony Caramia, who writes "Play this CD if you prefer your ragtime powerful, vigorous, robust, energetic, and full of the surprises and energy of youth... [Spitznagel's] playing is nothing short of remarkable, exhausting, and utterly astonishing." 18 tracks. 55 minutes.

Covered in white sticky film
Used this today, thought I was being healthy conscious picking this brand. Let me tell you, it doesn't spray well, it leaves blotches of white sticky film that I couldn't even run in. I look like I made out with a snowman, kind of embarrassing on the beach as I need color, not more white streaks all over my body. First and last time for me, the other brands are invisible, this one coats you like a white barn.

Sunscreen won’t spray
Style: SPF 50 Spray Mineral Sunscreen, Size: 4.5 Ounce (1 Pack)
Love the sunscreen but it literally stopped spraying after about 5 uses. There is a lot still left to use but the product won’t spray.

The awful smells keeps it from being five stars
Style: SPF 50 Lotion Mineral Sunscreen, Size: 3 Ounce (1 Pack)
I purchased two variants of this sunscreen - the 50 SPF lotion and the 33 SPF lotion. Despite the descriptions indicating that they have different scents, both seem to have the same scent, which is awful. One of the most important factors when purchasing a mineral sunscreen is the ease of application to the skin, and in my particular case, the ease of application to facial hair / a beard. I feel this sunscreen is lightweight and very easy to apply to the skin, including easy to apply to facial hair / a beard without stretching / pulling the skin. This makes it easy to wash off with a men's face wash. I feel the 33 SPF lotion is slightly more lightweight and easier to apply than the 50 SPF lotion. Another important factor when selecting a mineral sunscreen is the percentage of zinc oxide. This sunscreen meets the 20% or higher criteria, which makes it ideal for prolonged periods of exposed to UVA / UVB radiation. I would probably only recommend this sunscreen for incidental sun exposure; I am not sure how sweat resistant this sunscreen is being how lightweight it is and that it is not considered a sport sunscreen. I highly recommend and will continue to purchase.

Great sunscreen and great customer service!
Style: SPF 50 Spray Mineral Sunscreen, Size: 4.5 Ounce (1 Pack)
Really effective long lasting sunscreen without all the bad chemicals. Alcohol free, which I'm looking for in all lotions. Great product and even better customer service. I had a problem with one of my items and received a call from Aloe Up the same day. Support USA-family owned businesses.

Got burned
Our son used up the entire bottle during a day at the beach, reapplying every 1-2 hours, and still got quite burned.
