["Mark Robinson" <wytches@xxxxxxxxx>]

    Thanks for review.......I was a huge fan of Creem in the day and am
    sorry to see this come out.  Let me know what you think of the Bomp
    book and ferchristsake how about a Kicks book.  Same deal...layout,
                                  photos.

     I ordered mine from Amazon.com and it came last week--just two days
     after

     the Creem book.

     Haven't had time to read either, but the Bomp book looks much more

     authentic. Actual pages reproduced when articles reprinted, so you
     get the

     original page layout and look of the mag--very colorful, psych and
     punk

     looking. And lots of articles that I remember from the old days,
     including

     record reviews and columns, etc.

     The Creem book, sheesh, too bad a photographer put it together.
     There are

     page after page after page of full-pages of cover pix--just the
     picture of

     the rocker with a big Creem logo at the top of the page (without
     all the

     article blurbs). And page after page of "Stars Cars" color photos,
     etc. Cuts

     way into the article content. And the wayout articles I remember
     best aren't

     there (No Jaan Uhelski onstage in KISS makeup, for instance). And
     article

     are reprinted in new layouts, without all the cool design and

     black-and-white pix. Overall, way too slick and doesn't seem or
     look like

     Creem. At least, that's my first impression.
