Keyes, Thom - All Night Stand

Tawdry slice of exploitation, very much of the moment.
The scene, the tail end of the British Invasion. Second generation charge after the first wave.
In this case, The Score, five man group of mixed sods.
Five sections, one per member. With lead singer Roy, look sharp. He gets LSD (lead singer disease) and bails for the solo spotlight.
Lead guitarist Dave is interested in scrubbers (groupies) and thrills.
Mick, shy and beautiful, seems bored and bookish.
Nick, moody, bitter, is the group’s main scribe, while Gerry holds things together.
Along the way, they perform in Hamburg, tour the States, meet an icon American singer (who goes by one name), release blockbuster albums, get tagged for a film.
If you are old enough, you will spy enough references and might wonder how the author escaped lawsuits.
My bride, who bought this when it came out in 1967, worried how misogynistic it might read today.
There’s a fair amount, but female characters misbehave as urgently and blatantly.
According to the book, All Night Stand would soon be a film. Never happened. I suspect Privilege came out. A few years later, That’ll Be The Day.
Enjoyment / appreciation of this might depend on how steeped you are in the Sixties.
