Ian Whitcomb, One Hit Wonder British Invader of the 1960, never went home. Instead, he tried to settle down in Los Angeles County and produced a Grammy-winning CD, wrote songs for movies, auditioned for butler roles in TV commercials, had and lost dogs, married successfully, and continued to play his ukulele as the ship went down. Part biography, part comedy, this is a book about Whitcomb's world of heroes and villains, where he is King.
