Magazines were an important part of the 70s music experience. Rolling Stone, CREEM, and yup, even Tiger Beat gave information and access to our favorite singers and bands. Their influence was definitely not the same because their target audience was not the same. You were not going to see a Charles Manson interview in Tiger Beat, but that was not the reason for Tiger Beat's existence, but in a pre-internet world, there is little debate that print media was a strong influence in promoting the careers of musicians who made some of the seminal music of the era.
