The Supremes sing the happy heartache blues [large print] / Edward Kelsey Moore.

Summary:

When a late life love affair blooms between Mr. Forrest Payne, the owner of the Pink Slipper Gentleman's Club, and Miss Beatrice Jordan, famous for yelling warnings of eternal damnation at his patrons, their wedding summons a legend to town. Mr. El Walker, the great guitar bluesman, comes home to give a command performance in Plainview, Indiana, a place he'd sworn he'd never set foot in again. Included in El's rapt audience are the lifelong friends, known locally as "The Supremes" - Clarice, Barbara Jean, and Odette: each contending, between Sunday meetings at Earl's All-You-Can-Eat, with great changes in their lives.--backcover
