Lotusland

by Ian Whitcomb

Through a remarkable series of coincidences Ian Whitcomb--author, entertainer, musician--meets one of the living legends of jazz. What follows is an amazingly energetic and humorous tour through the early dreams of Nirvana, beginning in the Venice of 1917. With Whitcomb as guide, we see how the city of anything goes has finally become the place where everything went. Whitcomb is a writer, crooner, pop historian, pianist and ukulelist extraordinaire.
