Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Initially broadcast as a TV miniseries to go with the series of three Anthology double-CD albums, this set of eight documentary tapes has the heft and scope of one of Ken Burns's expansive projects. Still, unless you are either a historian or a truly committed fan, you'll find yourself with way more material--particularly about the Beatles' early lives as lads in Liverpool--than you'll want to watch. The documentary material is copious, including early performance films and tapes, at the point before they found their true voices. The actual Beatlemania years--beginning in 1963 and concluding in 1970--feature extensive performance films, 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 "new Beatles songs," the Anthology includes some unseen Lennon interview tapes so that his acerbic voice can be heard as well. This stands as a comprehensive document of that heady period, the second coming of rock & roll, as the Beatles took what Elvis had started and expanded upon it exponentially. The tapes give a solid sense of the historical context and the way these four musicians changed the world around them in the 1960s. --Marshall Fine

This stuff will give your children nightmares. Not only are the lyrics dumb, the musicians are amateurs. The melodies are "okay," however, they are overly simplistic in most cases. I can't recommend this stuff to my worse enemy except the people who post replies to my reviews. I do recommend LP's by columbia or Reader's Digest records of Ravel, Debussy, Brahms, Beethoven, Tchaikovsky, Handel, Mozart, and others of that school. Most of all, I recommend Wagner for true grandeur.

More than 30 years after their demise as a band, the Beatles keep setting records. (though it was 25 years when the Anthology was released)
When the Anthology was first aired, right after, in one day 450,000 albums of Anthology 1 were sold, the most albums EVER sold in one day. (and it wasn't cheap, either) There was the audio version of the Anthology first, and each one cost...was it $30? Something like that, but they had a LOT of songs on each disc. Then the video Anthology finally ... Read More

set came in the original box in mint condition and the best thing of course is the content... hours of Beatles thoughts, images and music.

Seriously, I could have watched 20 hours of this fascinating documentary. Sad that John's comments could come only from video tapes and recordings. Time appears to have healed all wounds between the others and been replaced by nostalgia and the good fellowship of old mates. The music videos were 15 years ahead of their time and great fun to relive.
