Which DVD
« on: August 21, 2007, 08:52:17 AM »
I just got a 50 quid Amazon voucher from my brother for my birthday. So I thought I'd beef up my Beatles DVD collection. Am I right in thinking these are the only official releases:

Anthology
A Hard Day's Night
First US Visit
Yellow Submarine (deleted?)

I have the first two above, so I thought I'd get the First US Visit. Can anyone recommend anything else?

If you like George's music, the Concert for George is amazing. The show, the presentation of the songs, the mood, the extras-- everything is top notch,  moving and truly inspirational. Really one of the most brilliant music DVDs ever made.

Good luck! Enjoy!

I've had that since it came out. And Bangla Desh. I was thinking more in terms of Beatles rather than solo or related.

Thanks for the list. Must have taken all afternoon!! I'll look into them. I know their aren't many official releases, so it's good to have some of the unofficial stuff recommended. Some of it is dreadful. Don't worry about uploading anything. The files are way too big, and you can buy the unofficial stuff cheaply enough on Amazon Marketplace anyway.

The only movies that have been re-issued are A Hard Day's Night, and Yellow Submarine - which seems to have been deleted again.

You have to get Let It Be. I'm sure it's available somewhere. The First US Visit is awesome. I've watched it tons of times. Some unofficial ones I love are: Fun With the Fab Four (has the Pyramus and Thisbe sketch) and The Beatles Unauthorized (cool press conferences and stuff). And Lennon Legend is worth having if you love John's stuff. The bonus Imagine performance in the red leather and masks is almost worth the whole video.

9)Anthology
10)The Magic Christian--Ringo
11)How I Won The War--John, 1966

13) The Madison Square Garden Concert--John Lennon & Friends (1972)(you've GOT to hear the version of "Mother" on here !!)
----------------

The Rolling Stones Rock & Roll Circus may not be what you are looking for, but it's brilliant to see! Of course it's just John, but it's worth it.
