TeenSet

TeenSet

TeenSet was a short lived (1965-1969) music magazine that offered a disconcerting mix of puppy-love teen idols and clear-eyed journalism on the LA underground music scene. A name change to AUM (America’s Under-thirty Magazine) and last-ditch attempt at becoming a serious magazine on the music business quickly ushered in the magazine’s doom, and the editors quickly moved on to work for more successful magazines like Rolling Stone.
