Initially broadcast as a TV miniseries to go with the series of threeAnthology double-CD albums, this set of eight documentary tapes has theheft and scope of one of KenBurns's expansive projects. Still, unless you are either a historian or atruly committed fan, you'll find yourself with way more material--particularlyabout the Beatles' early lives as lads in Liverpool--than you'll want to watch.The documentary material is copious, including early performance films andtapes, at the point before they found their true voices. The actual Beatlemaniayears--beginning in 1963 and concluding in 1970--feature extensive performancefilms, as well as home movies and archival material. The best parts, of course,are the interviews with the Beatles themselves, who produced the entire thing.Along with reworking two previously unreleased John Lennon tracks as 'newBeatles songs,' the Anthology includes some unseen Lennon interview tapesso that his acerbic voice can be heard as well. This stands as a comprehensivedocument of that heady period, the second coming of rock & roll, as the Beatlestook what Elvis had started and expanded upon it exponentially. The tapes give asolid sense of the historical context and the way these four musicians changedthe world around them in the 1960s. --Marshall Fine

He really wanted to see some live concerts, but I wasn't sure whether these DVDs would satisfy his curiosity. I watched the 5 DVDs with my dad and they were unbelievably entertaining. They present the Beatles in a new light - these guys were very funny and easy going. It was a pleasure to follow their career from the very beginning! The DVDs contain live concerts, interviews and personal footage. A ... Read More

Rating: - This!!!! should have been called "The Complete Beatles"
I remember in the 80's the vhs documentary called "The comlpete Beatles" which was only two hours. then in 1995 we had the privilege of seeing the the three night documentary of Anthology which wetted our lips a bit , especially with new Beatle songs to come with it. So I hev been ina Beatles faze recently ,so after two years of thinking about this release , I decided this past Sat. to finally purchase this set on Dvd.
