GROUPIES AND OTHER ELECTRIC LADIES
This acclaimed book, by iconic photographer Baron Wolman, is the original chronicle of the women who became influential style icons and were integral to the explosive revolution in music and culture during the 1960’s. Music was at the heart of a new generation's rallying cry for love, peace and harmony - from small clubs to giant festivals like Woodstock. With men predictably dominating as musicians and performers, the women and girls backstage started to explore their own forms of liberation and self-expression. They became better known as the Groupies - offering their allegiance to the music, and the artists who made it. On February 15, 1969 Rolling Stone magazine released a 'Special Super-Duper Neat Issue' called 'THE GROUPIES and Other Girls' featuring Pamela des Barres, Catherine James, Sally Mann, Cynthia Plaster Caster and many more. It would turn out to be a sensational milestone, making instant celebrities of the women featured. With this single issue, the Groupies had arrived!
