From Dandy in Aspic:

This book, first published in 1969, quickly achieved cult status for more than one reason. Not only it was the first detailed insight into the groupie phenomenon and the world of sex, drugs and Rock n’ Roll, but it was also the first time the quintessential sixties slang was used in English literature. As Jonathon Green wrote in the preface to the 1997 edition: “Groupie” gets 22 citations in the Oxford English Dictionary from “downer” to “trippy” and “spliff” to “uptight”, a mini-lexicon of Sixties-speak (p. iv). The book itself is a fictionalised account of London’s sixties underground music scene by real-life groupie Jenny Fabian.
