Reviews
These written and pencil-drawn lines are a perfect accompaniment to Tom McDermotts music because, like him, they are unstuck in time. Who writes limericks anymore? Who draws with a pencil? The same guy, apparently, whom I once heard play the middle movement of Beethovens Pathetique Sonata to a Fats Domino beat. Toms limericks and drawings are pure whimsical joy. Like his music, they remind us why our brains have evolved with a pleasure center. Dan Baum, author of Nine Lives and Gun Guys

Synopsis
This collection of alert, witty, and world-wise limericks by the great New Orleans jazz pianist and composer Tom McDermott, illustrated with his own drawings, is a snapshot of a restlessly creative mind and heart at play. These "personal nursery rhymes" demonstrate that simplicity of means need not be incompatible with sophistication of ends. In all their various modes -- the frivolously comic, the self-deprecating, the wistful, the gently mocking, the philosophical -- a very individual elegance and generosity of spirit are always to be found., Poetry. Art. Music.
