In the history of rock ‘n’ roll, Creem was the only true Rock ‘n’ Roll magazine. It began in a run-down neighborhood of Detroit and at the epicenter of a rock movement (The Stooges, MC5) that was far removed from the commercial pressures of either Coast. This gave Creem the freedom to be bold, mercilessly speak the truth and damn the consequences. 

The magazine’s all-star staff included legendary critics like Dave Marsh and Lester Bangs. Decades after the magazine ceased publishing, its fanatical and loyal readers still celebrate Creem’s fearless, non PC humor.. and regard it not just as a magazine about rock, but an integral part OF rock. 

In this interview, documentary filmmaker Scott Crawford discusses the four-year making of the movie and the challenges, joys and obstacles to bringing this story of a revolutionary editorial movement to the screen.
