Join us to discuss a music book classic ‘I’m With The Band - Confessions of a Groupie’ with Pamela Des Barres.
Pamela’s first touchstone in music was the Beatles & she became on obsessive Beatlemaniac after the Fab Four arrive on US soil in early 1964.
The following year she met Captain Beefheart & it opened up a new world to her on the Sunset Strip in LA.
Before long she was mixing with the likes of The Byrds, Frank Zappa, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix, Gram Parsons & Led Zeppelin (legend has it the Zeppelin track ‘Going To California’ is about her & her friends).
Her many relationships over the years include Keith Moon, Jimmy Page, Mick Jagger, Chris Hillman & Jim Morrison.
Her band the GTOs were formed by Frank Zappa & went onto release an album.
It takes anything from 5 to 40 hours to prepare each episode of Music Maps - if you’d like to make a contribution to help us cover the costs & time of producing these episodes for you, you can do so at this link: ko-fi.com/musicmaps
It is hugely important for us to get positive reviews & star ratings - if you have enjoyed Music Maps & can spare the time to do either we would hugely appreciate it.
