It was quite good. I liked the videos of Andy Warhol being interviewed.
And Roger Waters forgot to change the chords when he did that acoustic version of Goodbye Cruel World!

Yeah. that Bugged me. For the Hendrix programme they made colour footage Black and White, Sepia-ed black and white footage to make it look more like colour... generally annoying for the collector!Salmonberry Compendia wrote:It was ok, but I enjoyed last weeks Hendrix one much more.
I really wasn't keen on the production techniques used in the show (the tinting, the zooming in and showing a detail of the clip rather than showing it as it was originally shot, the adding of fake scratches to a Bowie clip to make it look old & damaged). I could rant at length but I'll leave it at that, as many tv shows are guilty of those production techniques, not just this one.
Is a DVD release with the complete unmolested clips as extras too much to hope for?

After all the usual hype and hyperbole it was the same old clips, nothing new
at all. It had been stated by various 'in the know' websites that footage
of the 5 man Floyd and first colour footage of Gilmour in the band would be shown.
As it turned out neither was shown. The Dark Side footage was from Brighton
June 72, this had been shown on the 'Classic Albums' series some years ago.
What do you expect from the BBC who after all erased their tapes of TOTP from 67, 'Moonhead' from 1969 , 'Science Session' from 1968... the list goes on. If only
they had taken the same same attitude as the French who's INA archive is virtually
complete.

It looked simular to the japan 72 footageCowards wrote:Where did the clip of the Floyd getting off the aeroplane come from, either with the girls around or with the footage of girls around them (very Beatlemaniaesque)...
And the stuff from The WallLive looked really good.

It did have a fairly massive upgrade of the Jugband promo. I too am bummed about the lack of that 5 piece backstage footage that Nick Mason has..theoutercircle wrote:After all the usual hype and hyperbole it was the same old clips, nothing new

These guys also have part 2 and you can then put both parts on 1 DVD.

Haha. I noticed that too. Would've liked to have heard more of David singing Brain Damage. If nothing else, to see what sort of fist he made of the chorus. My ears are still recovering from Roger's rendition of it on the Making of the Dark Side of the Moon DVDPublicImage wrote:It was quite good. I liked the videos of Andy Warhol being interviewed.
