Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

With timeless single "There She Goes,"Lee Mavers'La's overtook The Stone Roses as great British guitar hopes and paved the way for the Britpop renaissance of Blur and Oasis. However, since 1991, The La's have been silent, while rumors of studio-perfectionism, madness and drug addiction have abounded with Mavers lined up as another rock casualty. The author sets out to discover the truth behind Mavers'lost decade and eventually gains a revelatory audience with Mavers himself.

Synopsis:

A search for The La's and their leader Lee Mavers - the reclusive genius behind smash hit single "There She Goes."
