Informazioni su questo ebook
Can really bad things just happen to good ordinary working folk? Duane, Frankie, Arthur, Syd, Slim, Harry, Dave, Jack. Reg, Sheila and Tony, make up “The Ten Bob Notes” a jobbing part time dance band playing in the Black Country 'Brumijum' in the 1950's. (Yes there are eleven but Duane's the leader/conductor so he doesn't count!) Is Frankie really that bad? A 'Ted' with a dangerous quiff who dabbles in dodgy deals and a bit of fast transport with his black Austin Atlantic convertible. Syd, a very sad clarinet player who harbours dark thoughts since his soulmate suddenly died.Harry has unending talent but a propensity for beer and extra's that he hates but cannot forsake.Jack is young and as smooth as the slide on his new trombone as he finally manages to separate his Dad from his 500cc BSA motorbike and sidecar. Only to find it leads him to uncertain decisions.Reg and Arthur who share work at the foundry, a green Ford Esquire van and a love of music and fishing. Sheila Salvadori the sultry dark haired singer who croons with Tony but swoons with Frankie. Slim who adores from afar, his chubby profile and safe personality confining him to the also rans of life, until fate makes him an attractive option. And Dave who's tensions and compulsive obsessions find release in rhythms and beats. Bright ballroom lights provide essential relief for the men and women of the dirtier side of the industrial revolution as they provide the old time dance music of the forties and fifties. But what about Jonny?
