It looks at the reasons why art-pop bands such as OMD, China Crisis, Echo and the Bunnymen, Black and Frankie Goes to Hollywood managed to combine art and commerce with such spectacular success. The bands experienced their own 'revolutions in the head,' internal revolutions than eventually made many of them household names.The development of these suburban romantics from Liverpool represented a period of intensive creativity and musical romanticism that still resonates today.

The music industry, radio and DJs, producers and engineers, the record-buying public and the bands themselves comprise the heart of this account.…
