PimPage: An Occasional Feature in Which I Call Attention to Books of Interest

The Go For Broke Jazz Band
Okay, so it's not a book.  Still worth a look and a listen.

Jack Vance Website - Shop Music: Traditional jazz is Jack Vance's abiding passion. After dabbling with cornet in the '40s through '60s he took up ukulele in the early '70s, and learned all the standards with vocals and kazoo. The ukelele has been his constant companion ever since--at parties, conventions, and around the world.  Vance's drive to share his music is realized in the Go For Broke Jazz Band. He is accompanied by Kevin Boudreau, whose skill and talent made the recordings possible. The upbeat sound is informal, optimistic and joyful. Get ready for a good time with the Go For Broke Jazz Band!
