Athens, GA: Inside Out
Available on Philo, Prime Video
Led by the success of the B-52's and R.E.M, Athen, GA was the most happening music scene in the country by the mid 80's. Following several different bands from different genres, this film paints Athens as a magical artistic environment where bands are not in competition, but co-exist in harmony and share the ideals of the land. Live performances of R.E.M's "Swan, Swan H" and "Dream (All I Have To Do)" at the Lucy Cobb Institute chapel are included. Also featured are rare performances and insightful interviews from the B-52's, Pylon, B-B-Que Killers, Time Toy, Jim Herbert, Flat Duo Jets and many more!
