Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. 160 pp. cover wear around edges, spine creased, pages are age-toned at the margins. Featured in the book "Girl Gangs, Biker Boys, and Real Cool Cats: Pulp Fiction and Youth Culture, 1950 to 1980", pages 210-211. From the back cover: "Tim Staines, a hard-up young photographer, wants to make 'The Big Scene' of pop music, he discovers a group--The Fancy Free. As their manager, he enters a new world of easy sex, teenage nymphos, one night stand raves, gang fights and orgies, in his attempt to scale the dizzy heights of the Top Ten. Ripping aside the glamorous facade, the author exposes a ruthless business which grooves to the sound of a cash register, where failure is more certain than the success and popularity is as brief as a teenybopper's mini-skirt.".
