Three Liverpool families—the Flowers, the Baileys, and the McDowds—are all very different, yet inextricably linked. It is 1960s Liverpool, and the glamorous world of music is the place to be. So, when Sean, Lachlan, and Max form The Merseysiders and Jeannie and Rita become part of The Flower Girls, they put their hearts and souls into their performances and achieve success beyond their wildest dreams. The greatest star of all is Sean McDowd, adored by women everywhere, yet unable to get his first love out of his mind. But Jeannie Flowers has married Lachlan, and no one is prepared for the deceits and betrayals that lie ahead.

From AudioFile:
LIME STREET BLUES captures the heady freedom that Liverpudlians rejoiced in during the '60s. The Beatles provide background music for this study of three families intertwined over a twenty-year period by rock and roll and fast-paced social changes. Maggie Ollerenshaw is flawless as the performer of the numerous characters who comprise this panoramic look at music in all its facets--composing, practicing, organizing, and performing. After the various sets of parents cavort, conspire, divorce, and abandon their mates, their various children grow up, marry, have children of their own, cavort, conspire, divorce, and move through the fabric of one another's lives in a tapestry of frenzied fame, and all its trappings. Death, forgiveness, and redemption ensue as the joyful music of the time burns into acid and hard rock. M.D.H. © AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine

Book Description Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 'Sadie stopped washing the dishes to listen to the sound of her children singing in the distance, accompanied by the faint strum of a guitar. "What a voice our Rita's got," she marvelled. "I never realised it was quite so powerful. If only their dad was here, he'd be desperately proud." ' It is the heady sixties and Liverpool is the place to be. The Flowers, the Baileys and the McDowds are three very different Liverpool families bound together by just one thing: music. The children are determined to be part of the glamour that surrounds Liverpool so, when Sean, Lachlan and Max form The Merseysiders and Jeannie and Rita become part of The Flower Girls, they put their hearts and souls into their performances and achieve success beyond their wildest dreams. The greatest star of all is Sean McDowd, adored by women everywhere, yet unable to get his first love out of his mind. But Jeannie Flowers has married Lachlan and no-one is prepared for the deceits and betrayals that lie ahead. This wonderful novel spans forty years, recalling a magic and dangerous time, and is full of the tenderness, perception and drama we have come to expect from Maureen Lee. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR002538803
