Title: The Who Documentary DVD
Post by: mahg33ta on Dec 31, 2011, 08:29 AM
FYI to anyone interested-

There's a pretty good Who documentary called "Amazing Journeys" that's $29.99 at Amazon  but on sale for $3.89 currently.

For the price of a rental it's a nice little item (2 DVDs) or a good gift.

I've seen it. It is good. Not essential, but worth getting with the essential Kids Are Alright.

You're a Who guy I know. So, in the original Kids Are Allright, they played A Quick One WHA on Rock n Roll Circus in it's entirety but I have seen re-releases where they cut parts of it out. Do you know if the latest versions have the entire song?

Thanks (if you know)

I agree with this completely.  Good not great, and nowhere near Kids Are Alright.   I actually like the 2nd disc just as much as the 1st.

I just think it's a good price and I know I'm often scrambling to find a cheap item to get to $25 for free shipping!

There are two versions. I think the Blu-ray is intact (I have the newest reissue, but not Blu).

I have had 3 or 4 copies of TKAAR. My last one was bought about 5 years ago, a double DVD with an intact version of A quick one, complete with intro by Keef. As for Amazing Journey, it was considered quite a disappointment by the hard core Who fans. Lots of retread material that has been availble elsewhere.
