Format:Paperback
A fun compilation of jokes and anecdotes by this brilliant musician. The illustrations by Larry Adler, unseen until now, are a good compliment to the stories.
A useful book to have to remember funny stories one can tell others at the appropriate moment. A joke -- well timed and used intelligently -- can make the most boring of people amusing. Highly recommended.
Format:Paperback
Anecdotes, jokes and fun material by the great harmonica player, the late Larry Adler. Most entertaining and a lovely book to have for the coffee table.
