Product Description:


With raw photographs of rock's greatest stars and insightful prose by the legendary rock journalists who were stars in their own right, CREEM magazine stood at the forefront of youth counterculture from 1969 to 1988 as "America's Only Rock 'n' Roll Magazine." A product of Detroit's revolutionary counterculture, CREEM cultivated an incredibly gifted staff of iconoclastic scribes, editors, photographers, and graphic artists whose work continues to resonate today, including: Lester Bangs, Dave Marsh, Richard Meltzer, Nick Tosches, and a not-so-famous Cameron Crowe. They invented a raucous new form of journalism, where the writing and photographs were as much an expression of rock 'n' roll as the music itself. CREEM embraced and abused the best and the worst of the era: MC5, Led Zeppelin, the Rolling Stones, the Faces, Lou Reed, the Stooges, T.Rex, Kiss, Mott the Hoople, the Who, the New York Dolls, Bob Seger, Ted Nugent, Aerosmith, the Ramones, Cheap Trick, the Clash, and Van Halen, among many others.



Now the Mouth of the Motor City presents a retrospective of the beautiful haze that was rock's golden age—from the end of the hippie days through glam and punk and into '80s metal. Featuring the best of the magazine's vast archives of photos, illustrations, and articles, CREEM is the authentic rock 'n' roll experience—written for fanatics by fanatics.





Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Nostalgia over easy...
I bought my 1st Creem in early 1978 when I was 14 & was instantly hooked. I couldn't believe the photo captions, reviews & general piss-taking that the mag exhibited. I immediately ordered all the back issues I could afford as well as subscribing to it for 2 years. Despite the fact that I no longer have nearly 20 years of Creems to my name (long story), it has long been the root of my musical obsessions.

Cut to 2008, 30 years since I 1st saw Creem on the news-stand. This is a ... Read More



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - America's ONLY Rock 'n' Roll Magazine? - NOT!
I have always felt Creem's claim of "America's Only Rock 'n' Roll Magazine" was not only arrogant - but pure hype.

If you MUST buy the Creem book - or if you can only afford one purchase on the subject of Rock & Roll - do not pass up Suzy Shaw-Mick Farren's truly exciting, "Bomp! - Saving The World One Record At A Time".

Bomp! was a powerfull force in the explosion of underground Punk-PowerPop bands that began with The Ramones, Blondie, The Clash and the Sex Pistols ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - It's not perfect
What would make this book perfect is if it was single issues bound as one. Complete issues from cover to cover.
Instead we get a great compilation of a great magazine. I don't care much for the 80's stuff, but it is what it is - the magazine was around the 80's.
The best part is the Boy Howdy ads, the Stars and Their Cars photos and the cover gallery (not complete by any stretch).
I love this book though!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Where's the rest?
I don't know the whole story but there's all sorts of BS about who controls Creem these days. This book is great but is missing lots of great stuff. Maybe it's just Volume 1? One of the best articles I remember was the one Greg Turner (of the Angry Samoans) wrote about Motorhead on the Ace Of Spades tour. That's one of the only old issues I still have in a box somewhere.

Check out Mighty High...In Drug City



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Great, fun, magazine that has very little in common with this book.
Yeah, it's got some great articles. Yeah, it's got some Creem Profiles and photos. But.... it's boring. Unless you want to read about Alice Cooper, David Lee Roth, etc, there's just not much else going on here. What made the magazine so much fun were things like the AWESOME letters section, the laugh-yourself-silly-sometimes photo captions, the smaller articles and the fantastic photography (where is the great Lynn Goldsmith???) Where is any of that, where is the stuff we never got to see, the behind ... Read More
