I just got this dvd & thought give y'all a bit of a run-down on it contents.
Music Box must be an hour long TV show, this dvd is only 40min.
From the intro, I see there's shows about lots of other artists also.
This is a rather unusual collection of stuff. The first 5 minutes is pretty
standard 64 rioty girls footage. The last time you see JPM is at 6 min.
during a TV interview where they're asked about Vietnam. Looks like 66.
You just get a few seconds.... long enough for Paul & John's brief answers.
The very next scene is the early 67 night-time street interview where
Bill's havin' a rather hard time talkin'..... & he's asked about the decision
by the Beatles to stop touring.
Off camera....If you never tour again, would it worry you?
"No, I don't think so coz the thing about that is performance for us.....
see it's gone downhill; performance; coz we can't develope when no one
can hear us, ya know what I mean? So for us to perform.... it's difficult.....
it gets difficult each time." HUH?
Off camera.... You mean you don't want to do that?
"Ya we wanna do it but if we're not listened to and we can't even hear ourselves,
then we can't improve...... we can't get any better. So we're tryin' to get better
with things like recording"
The very next scene is the LSD interview.... all of it I think.
The next scene is part of a TV interview with Bill & Jane about their recent trip to
India & learning to meditate
The next 7 minutes are footage of the Bill & Linda wedding. He sure looks weird at that
time.... it's like they were tryin' to make his face rounder & something backfired!!
Maybe he's keepin' all the weed in his cheeks like a squirrel!
The next scene is news reports of him getting busted for growing pot plants on his farm
In an interview he sez he's big on hortoculture & a fan gave him the seeds & he didn't
know what they were. OK....YA, RIGHT!
The next scene is a short bit with a guy talking about how all the solo albums are crap
except for Band on the Run....... HEY what about RAM??
The next scene is part of an interview with Bill, Linda & Wings... Talkin' about overcoming
the Beatle thing & starting over.
The next scene is back to the crappy records guy now talking about the high turnover
rate of Wings personnel. These things usually show the name of who's commenting,
but not this one.
The next scene is part of a radio interview & he's asked if there was anything he was glad to
have gotten away from, & he sez "Yes, I would say... probably.... people snatching photographs
when I don't want to be photographed."
The next scenes are about the Sgt.P CD release..... various things.
Then some stuff about a Russian phone in program he participated in.
The next scene is part of a TV interview where he's asked about the offers for The Beatles to
get back together.... "The chemistry people were talking about had been broken"
And a list of more really lame reasons as to why The Stones could keep going but they couldn't.
The next scenes are about Linda getting busted for pot at Heathrow Airport.... & they made it
sound like she was returning from Barbados where Bill had just got busted for pot also.
The next scene is outside the magistrates court.
The next scenes are right after Bill returned to England after his release for his pot bust &
jail time in Japan.
The next scenes are around the premier of Broadstreet then it ends rather abruptly with the
narrator saying something about how most of the people screaming & singing Beatle songs at
the premier weren't old enough to have heard of "Beatlemania"
