Product Description

Ladies and Gentlemen…The Redeemers tells the story of Bert Ingram, once a successful rep in the music industry, who has lost his way. Desperate for redemption, the perpetual dreamer decides to put together a band, recruiting musicians who have only one thing in common: the need to overcome a significant obstacle in their lives. The volatile mix of the musicians' personalities and backgrounds threatens to derail the band at every opportunity, but in time, the Redeemers begin to realize they have more to gain from one another than they ever could have imagined.

4.0 out of 5 stars Ladies and Gentelmen ... The Redeemers 15 April 2012
By BigAl TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:Kindle Edition
Ladies and Gentleman ... is the adult version of a bunch of kids saying, "let's start a band," which sounds like an entertaining read to me for that reason alone. However, it is also (as this line stolen from the book puts it), "a lesson in persistence, perseverance, salesmanship, and faith."

The main characters in this book are much different (which is where a fair portion of the story conflict comes from), but each needs "redemption" for different reasons. Even the wild card in the band needs something, although he doesn't realize it and what it is isn't readily apparent. A fun, feel good story.

**Originally written for "Books and Pals" book blog. May have received a free review copy. **

5.0 out of 5 stars Music fans take note 20 Aug 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
A story filled with rich and colourful characters whose interaction make it believable and enjoyable. I love a tale that pulls us through the trials and tribulations of fulfilling a dream.

Not only music fans will relate to this welcoming tale.

Great writing, Michael and thanks for sending 'Redeemers' to me.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book that music fans will love! 22 May 2011
Format:Kindle Edition
This is a wonderful book, well written and entertaining. I thoroughly enjoyed it. 'Ladies and Gentlemen... The Redeemers', tells the story of Bert Ingram, a once successful music rep who worked for a major record company. Now facing middle-age, he finds himself destitute with nothing to show for the years he spent following his dream and the passion he has for music and spotting great talent. His former colleagues have given up on him and he seems destined to spend the rest of his life as an outcast. Bert has something to prove, so he makes it his mission to find raw talent among the down and outs in San Francisco; the musicians who play music on the streets. He has already set his sights on a singer he has spotted at Montgomery Street BART Station. We follow Bert as he tries to put together a band of musicians and lead them to super stardom, to prove to his former associates that he is still a major player.

The characters are introduced by the author in individual chapters, where we learn about their backgrounds and lives. Although they are all quite different, they are brought together by one man who has seen something in them. Bert Ingram prides himself on being able to spot talent when he sees it. I liked the interaction between the band members and between Bert and the individuals in the band. It is a very realistic portrayal of a band and all of the behind the scenes aspects of that. I recently read an excellent memoir about the life of a touring band '33 Days' by Bill See, and I was reminded of certain parts of that book when I was reading 'Ladies and Gentlemen... The Redeemers'.

The story of The Redeemers teaches us that everyone can learn something from another person, no matter who that person is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rock and Roll! 13 Oct 2012
By Scotty
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Others have outlined the story already, I'll just repeat that this is a great book, well written and a joy from start to finish - think The Commitments meets That Thing You Do, and you'd be on the right track, but this has a story, and a message, of its own. Excellent.
