Description
The B-52's, R.E.M., and the Kids who Rocked Athens, Georgia In the 1970s and 1980s, a vibrant underground rock music scene emerged in Athens, Georgia, giving birth to iconic bands like the B-52's, Pylon, and R.E.M. This book tells the story of that era, drawing on half-remembered stories, local anecdotes, and legendary lore. Rodger Lyle Brown's insider's look at the scene is a heady, keg-beer-fueled romp that takes the reader from the South's dirty back roads to the precipice of rock superstardom. A new and rarely seen collection of photographs, a foreword by Charles Aaron, and an afterword by David Barbe round out this 25th-anniversary edition. With its unique blend of music, history, and local colour, this book is a fascinating account of a pivotal moment in American music history.
