Pamela Des Barres
About this listen
The stylish, exuberant and remarkably sweet confession of one of the most famous groupies of the 1960s and '70s is back in this new edition that includes an afterword on the author's last 15 years of adventures.
As soon as she graduated from high school, Pamela Des Barres headed for the Sunset Strip, where she knocked on rock stars' backstage doors and immersed herself in the drugs, danger, and ecstasy of the freewheeling 1960s.
Over the next 10 years she had affairs with Mick Jagger, Jimmy Page, Keith Moon, Waylon Jennings, Chris Hillman, Noel Redding and Jim Morrison, among others. She traveled with Led Zeppelin; lived in sin with Don Johnson; turned down a date with Elvis Presley; and was close friends with Robert Plant, Gram Parsons, Ray Davies and Frank Zappa. As a member of the GTO's, a girl group masterminded by Frank Zappa, she was in the thick of the most revolutionary renaissance in the history of modern popular music.
Warm, witty and sexy, this kiss-and-tell-all stands out as the perfect chronicle of one of rock 'n' roll's most thrilling eras.

Amazing Memoir by a Fascinating Woman
I was surprised how much I liked this. Miss Pamela is an excellent writer and a very charming storyteller. I laughed. I cheered. I ranted at those who did her wrong. She sure knows how to weave an engaging tale.

Fun first person view into the 60s & 70s
I loved it. As someone obsessed with the Laurel Canyon scene in the flower power era it was great to hear the perspectives and even diary entries of a real OG/GTO. Very colourful, very groovy. Pamela is a legend.

NO WAY !! JUST HORRIBLE !!
it could have been a great story but it was ruined by horrible narration & her singing every few minutes . YUCK !!
The narration was WAY over the top, she just poured it on so thick .
i struggled through the first 2 chapters then had to call it quits.
