This DVD is essentially a documentary style programme lasting one hour. It shows coverage of the Beatles playing on the Ed Sullivan show in the mid-60s. The Ed Sullivan show is a bit like the UK chat-show! Most of the tracks on the red album are on this DVD but along with a commentary by so-called officianados like Phil Sutcliffe, Nick Tauber etc The quality is surprisingly impressive; but ultimately the documentary and footage is shown in a picture-in-picture format.
Whilst this DVD will be of interest to even the most modest of Beatles fans, it is certain to have more appeal to the collector. Non-the-less enjoyable but rent it instead of buying it! Well put together and produced. Look forward to more from the Rock Milestones series.
