Summary: The Queen Of All Our Dreams...
Comment: Superb. This is still my favourite of all Pamela's books and a true Rock Culture classic. Anybody who was Frank Zappa's nanny and Jimmy Page's girlfriend in the same lifetime has to be worth reading - and this gal can write.
Unlike some books, this is in no way a name-dropping cash-in. Pamela actually did all these things, was all these things. She WAS Don Johnson's girlfriend, and buds with a young Vince Furnier (Alice Cooper), Robert Plant, Mick Jagger, Keith Moon etc. with an awesome collection of photos to prove it.
Written with the wisdom and humility that only comes with the approach of middle age, (when, in my opinion, women are just beginning to enter their prime), IWTB is a very human look under the hood of the Rock Machine. There are so many delicious insights into the whole Led Zeppelin era, that by the time you have devoured the book, you feel like you had actually been there.
Unfortunately IWTB is presently out of print, but her ElectricGypsy website may have some information about future availability. If not, keep surfing Amazon. It will be worth the wait.

Summary: PAMELA ROCKS!!!
Comment: This is one of the best rock n' roll books I have ever read. I'm a huge fan of 60's 70's music and have read ton's of books. Pamela really captures the times. She was a free sprit who grew up in LA in the late 60's. She went to the local clubs and saw alot of shows, met and dated guys in bands, she had a blast!! I really enjoyed the stories about, Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison, Noel Redding, Mick Jagger, Gram Parrsons, etc.. She writes straight from the heart, and has a great sense of humor. Most of the book was taken from her dairy. It has a intimate feeling as if she is sharing her life with a close friend. She lived her dreams and wasn't afriad to do what she wanted. Rock on Pamela!

Summary: Fun read
Comment: This was a good book - entertaining, at times kind of sad, but all in all a good read. It was very well written, with an obviously juicy subject. I liked this book so much better than Rebel Heart by Bebe Buell.
