by Johnny Byrne and Jenny Fabian

Book Overview

a fast-paced groovy rock text for any serious groupie chick

It's based on true facts and you can play a guessing game with who Katie's conquests really are from all the happening English bands of these times. It's fun, risque for having been written in the late 1960's, but always serious, as Katie searches for the ultimate scene... Read it! As they say "the only place for chicks in rock and roll is in the back of the van"!!
