Pamela and michael des barres

Barely 30 seconds in and Pamela Des Barres has not so much name-dropped as chucked her diary on the table. Then, as we scan the menu in the rapidly busying Friday night dining room of an in-crowd Hollywood hotel, I idly enquire as to her dietary habits.

In bracing detail, the woman born Pamela Miller in Reseda, California, details her high jinks on the Sunset Strip of lates and earlys Los Angeles. She alchemised adolescent Beatles fandom into a new type of ardour: that of the groupie. A groupie takes the next step.
