Is there any place Bo Ayars hasn't played piano?

Is there anyone he hasn't played with?

In this charming, humorous memoir, Bo Ayars shares his insider's view of the late-night lounges, swanky showrooms, small-town theaters, cross-country trains, and big-city arenas where he has entertained audiences along with the biggest names in showbiz: Streisand, Goulet, Elvis, and, of course, Mr. Showmanship himself, Liberace.

From piano bars in Glendale, California, to Las Vegas hotel-casinos, to Radio City Music Hall's Christmas extravaganza, Bo has tickled the keys and waved the conductor's baton to make the music happen--with bands, orchestras, singers, dancers, showgirls, jugglers, circus animals, bar brawlers, puppets, comedians, and presidents.

Filled with amusing stories and poignant reflections, "1 Baton" takes you backstage and into the spotlight of Bo's amazing life in music.
