The field full of Kudzu featured on the cover of Murmur is alive and well...It's been surprisingly untouched for 28+ years!
Filmed on my trip to Athens, GA 8-13-11

  • I've been to Athens a few times to check out some of R.E.M.'s history, but I've never been to that spot. Where exactly is that?

  • @momothemilkman if you search google earth in athens, it is right off the intersection of Chattooga Ave and Hiawassee Ave. There is an opening at this intersection where there are train tracks, you just go to the left on the tracks and walk a half block and the field is on the left of the tracks, just past the houses...once you see that concrete block it all makes sense...

  • what was more impressive the kudzu or the trestle?

  • @Thatbeat1974

    The Kudzu, because I didn't know anything about where the cover was taken until my friend went on the Athens music history tour...I walked into an album cover! That's never happened before!

  • Mindblowing...I had no idea it was still around until recently.
