First published in 1987, New York Times bestseller, I’m With The Band has been reprinted throughout the years, all over the world. This is the stylish, exuberant and sweetly innocent tale of one of the most famous groupies of the 1960s and 70s. Beginning with Pamela Des Barres’ early obsession with Elvis, her own Beatlemania madness, and her fierce determination to meet the musicians who rocked her world, I’m With The Band illuminates the glory days of scintillating encounters with musical gods including Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Mick Jagger and Keith Moon. A girl just wanting to have fun, Des Barres immersed herself in the drugs, danger and ecstasy of the freewheeling 1960s. As a member of The GTOs (Girls Together Outrageously), an all-female group masterminded by Frank Zappa, Des Barres was in the thick of the most revolutionary renaissance in the history of modern popular music. She travelled 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 and Ray Davies. She had affairs with Mick Jagger, Jimmy Page, Keith Moon, Waylon Jennings, Chris Hillman, Noel Redding, and Jim Morrison, among others. A woman in possession of her own destiny, Des Barres blazed a trail for women’s life-writing, standing up for female voices and experience everywhere. From original diaries, told with great warmth, chutzpah and joie de vivre, this is a frank memoir that wears its heart on its sleeve, and recalls one of rock ’n’ roll’s most thrilling eras. This edition contains new material from the author, including her response to the vitriolic shaming of groupies, and a foreword by Roisin O’Connor, rock journalist and music correspondent for the Independent.

Intégrée dans le milieu rock de Los Angeles par Captain Beefheart qu’elle rencontre alors qu’elle est encore au lycée, Pamela va très vite se faire une place dans ce petit monde. D’abord en tant que fan prête à tout pour attirer le regards des rockstars puis en montant elle aussi sur scène aux côtés des GTO’s - groupe de rock composé uniquement de groupies et chaperonné par Frank Zappa - et finalement en devenant l’amante et la muse de rockers aussi dépravés qu’égoïstes. Sans mélancolie mais plutôt avec humour et autodérision, Pamela Des Barres partage ses souvenirs, ses amitiés, ses joies et ses désillusions, ses parties de jambes en l’air, ses défonces avec en fond sonore les chefs-d’oeuvre du rock des années soixante. Dans cette autobiographie, se côtoient l’insouciante jeune fille assoiffée de nouvelles expériences et la femme qui s’est construite par l’affirmation de ses libertés ; deux facettes qui font d’elle aujourd’hui une pionnière de la libération sexuelle et du féminisme décomplexé.

Pamela Des Barres spent the sexual revolution on the ramparts as the celebrated "queen of the groupies" and chronicled her adventures with the high priests of rock in her best seller I'm With the Band. Affectionate, subversive, and funny, it was hailed by The New York Times as representing "something honorable and loving ... about the sexual honesty of modern women." It became an underground classic, an emblematic memoir of the 1960s generation.

As ousadas memórias da 'groupie' mais famosa da história do rock começam em 1960, quando, ainda menina, acompanhada pelos pais, ela suspirava por Elvis em sessões de cinema. Poucos anos mais tarde, Pamela Miller, de Reseda, Califórnia, tornou-se uma beatlemaníaca perdidamente apaixonada por Paul McCartney. Enquanto adaptava seu sotaque americano ao britânico de Liverpool, ela escrevia poemas românticos para seu ídolo, disfarçava a ausência de seios com enchimentos de tecido costurados ao soutien e domava os cachos em penteados que deveriam torná-la mais atraente aos olhos dos colegas do colégio. Não demorou muito para que ela aderisse ao estilo mais natural - e extravagante - dos 'hippies', descobrisse, na voz de Bob Dylan, que a resposta estava sendo soprada pelo vento e que seus hormônios adolescentes começassem a pulsar com Mick Jagger cantando "I'm a king bee, baby, let me come inside". Foi quando ela se afastou dos garotos da escola e passou a se concentrar na conquista de seus músicos preferidos. Sunset Strip, onde tudo acontecia, ficava logo ali, à distância de uma carona. Contando, ninguém acredita, mas Pamela desfilou com Jim Morrison a tiracolo, foi namorada de Jimmy Page e, depois de resistir a muitas cantadas, acabou cedendo ao ardente desejo de Mick Jagger - para citar apenas três dos mais famosos -; cuidou dos filhos de Gail e Frank Zappa; formou o grupo GTO, Girls Together Only; e se tornou grande amiga de Robert Plant. E ela sabe contar como ninguém uma história muito peculiar da cena 'rock and roll' numa época em que até o showbiz era ingênuo, mas nem por isso menos alucinante. Misturando sua narrativa com trechos dos diários que mantinha com afinco, letras de canções e transcrições de bilhetes, Pamela conduz os leitores com leveza e autenticidade pelos bastidores dos palcos onde se criaram grandes fenômenos do rock. E, ao mesmo tempo, abre o coração da garota que acreditou e viveu o amor livre acima de todas as coisas.A história de Pamela Des Barres inspirou Kate Hudson e Goldie Hawn em seus papéis de 'groupies' nos filmes 'Quase Famosos' (Almost Famous) e 'Doidas Demais' (The Banger Sisters).

Since rock’s beginnings, there have been groupies. These chosen few women who bed, but not often wed, the musicians of their dreams are almost as much a part of music history as the musicians themselves. Pamela Des Barres, the world’s foremost supergroupie, here offers an all-access backstage pass to the world of rock stars and the women who love them. Having had her own affairs with legends such as Keith Moon and Jimmy Page--as documented in her bestselling memoir I’m with the Band--Pamela now turns the spotlight onto other women who have found their way into the hearts and bedrooms of some of the world’s greatest musicians. In Let’s Spend the Night Together, she tells, in their own words, the stories of these amazing women who went way beyond the one-night stand. Here you’ll get to know 24 outrageous groupies, including · Tura Satana, Miss Japan Beautiful, who taught Elvis how to dance and gave him lessons in lovemaking · Cassandra Peterson, aka Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, who tangled with Tom Jones in Sin City · Soulful Miss Mercy, who discovered that not only does the rest of the world listen to Al Green while making love--so does Al Green · Cynthia Plaster Caster, who redefined art and made history when Jimi Hendrix plunged his member into her plaster mold · The mysterious Miss B, who reveals Kurt Cobain’s penchant for lip gloss and pantyhose · and over a dozen more

The dark moments of rock history fascinate and tantalize like the pathos of Greek tragedy. The bottom sinks lower, the air seems colder, the bad endings--when they are bad--seem beyond bad. The unlucky practitioners of our most thriving form of communal experience seem to hit rock bottom in ways only the most glamorous among us can--publicly. The stories remain obscure, half-seen in the shadowlands. In her familiar style, Pamela Des Barres shines light on the people whose art remains the background music to our popular culture. Des Barres asks, "What comes first, the addiction or the rock and roll?" The first apparent rock-and-roll death occured on Christmas Eve in 1959, when Johnny Ace blew his head off in a game of Russian Roulette between shows. Buddy Holly's four-seater plane crashes. Marvin Gaye's father shoots his son. Kurt Cobain puts a gun to his head. The headlines tell it all: ROCK SINGER FACES MANSLAUGHTER CHARGE, JAMES BROWN ADDICTED TO PCP, BASSIST FOR BAND HOLE FOUND DEAD. The messed-up lives, the burned-out golden boys and girls, the violence, the route toward rock bottom--Des Barres has a line on the souls of the public figures who lived desperate private lives to entertain us all.

Author of the international bestseller I'm with the Band: Confessions of a Groupie, Pamela Des Barres shares with women the art of memoir writing. For the last fourteen years, Pamela Des Barres has been teaching an eight-week women's "femoir" writing workshop. She found that the music-loving ladies who showed up at her door had pent-up stories to tell. Many of them had read her two memoirs, which were wildly personal and deeply confessional, and felt comfortable opening up and experiencing that same freedom of expression. In this book, Des Barres guides women through the process of writing their memoirs. She has developed exercises to help her "dolls" recall, remember, relive, and reveal their memories, transgressions, temptations, their sleepless nights and brilliant afternoons, loves and losses, fears and regrets, secrets, sins, and sorrows. The assignments in Femoir have proven incredibly cathartic for her students. Just as intimate as one of her in-person workshops, this book includes some of Des Barres's own stories, as well as those of the women she's taught. Every person has an incredible story to tell—they just need to figure out how to tell it. By understanding themselves better through these writing exercises, women learn to be more fearless, free-spirited, and willing to try something new.
