Meet the grooviest groupie of the '60s.

She shagged Ringo Starr, Bob Dylan and Mick Jagger -- all married men -- at the height of their stardom.

Starr and George Harrison wrote songs about her, while singer-songwriter Leon Russell penned the tune "Pisces Apple Lady" for her.

There must be something in the O’Dell genes. I have known two different girls with that last name and both were pretty as a speckled pup.

This girl is no longer attractive but she probably was in her youth. She was at least pretty on the outside. Probably not inwardly.

Better to wear out than to rust out I guess. She may be over 60 now and living a bit quieter life but she must have wild memories.

If only she could remember them...

You left out that Eric Clapton married her after she divorced George Harrison. Clapton was obsessed with her and went on a five year drug bender because of her. I bet she has stories to tell...but she has choosen to not write a tell all or even open her mouth. That is class....

“Clapton was obsessed with her and went on a five year drug bender because of her.”

Clapton went on a five year drug and alcohol bender, because he was an addict alcoholic.

Drank and drugged before and after Patti. (My point neither Patti or the obsession made him go on a bender; addicts and alcoholics drug and drink for every possible reason; good times, bad times)

Later, when he was a “recovered addict alcoholic” he stayed sober although his poor son died accidentally.

Clapton is a class act. Donates a bunch of time and wealth to helping other people recover from drugs and alcohol.

Maureen Sharkey, Ringo's wife,

So that would make her Maureen Sharkey-Starkey?

Actually I read a book by Pattie Boyd (Layla), the book is called “Wonderful Tonight,” and you can get all disillusioned about all your favorite rock stars if you care to read it.

Unless shallow people rock your boat!

I had thought that people who could come up with such good music would have a little more to them.

“O’Dell now lives in Arizona, where she works as a substance-abuse counselor.”

Oh how the flighty have fallen!
