Here are just some of the photos I have of Sabel Starr - she was a groupie in early 70s Los Angeles, one of a crowd of teenage girls who hung around Rodney's English Disco. She was with the likes of Iggy Pop, David Bowie, Johnny Thunders etc.
(
This way for massive picspam for the amazing Miss Starr )
Next photo is Sabel and Nancy Spungen. Apparently a lot of Nancy's groupie stories were really Sabel's and people thought Nancy modelled herself a lot on Sabel.
The next 3 photos are of Sabel w/her friend Lori (I don't know if it's spelt Mattix or Maddox - she also went by the nickname Lori Lightning). She was another famous LA groupie, notable for being with Jimmy Page when she was only 14.
Then we have a photo of Sabel w/Johnny Thunders and Iggy Pop - both exs of hers. Iggy said he used to date her when she was 13/14. He also dated her sister Corel.
Then we have a couple of photos of Sabel w/Johnny and one of her w/Iggy - I'm guessing the Johnny ones she'd have been 16 - 18. I know she said she gave up being a groupie when she was still only about 19 and went back to LA after Johnny treated her so badly/beat her up.
Then another one of her & Iggy.
A couple of her on her own and in the middle is one of her with Debbie Harry (they were friends).
Sadly Sabel passed away a few years ago.
