i was wondering.. do y'all also have music dvds (or blu-rays) in your collections besides movies and tv series.. and if so, which ones do you own, and what are your favourites ?
For starters, here's a selection of my own The Who and Rory Gallagher collections on dvd :
- The Who - Live At The Isle Of Wight 1970 (which has been one of the most often played dvds here for many years)
- The Who - Live At Kilburn 1977
- The Who - The Kids Are Alright (documentary, 1979)
- The Who - Amazing Journey ; The Story Of The Who (documentary, 2007)
- The Who - Maximum R&B Live (archival live material compilation)
- The Who - Live In Texas 1975
- The Who - Tommy (1989) / Quadrophenia (1996 / 1997)
- Rory Gallagher - Ghost Blues (documentary) / Beat Club Sessions 1971 / 1972
- Rory Gallagher - Rockpalast Collection (3 dvd set, over 10 hours!!)
- Rory Gallagher - Live In Cork 1987
More to follow...
Please feel free to add your own favourites.

Awesome, i need to do some homework on those. It'll keep me busy for quite some time.
In the meantime.. Look at what i just found coming through my letterbox only minutes ago :
The full concert can also be seen on Youtube, but i liked it.. it's really good.. so i'm glad to have it on dvd.
We have a few here. Our friend has a big collection, mostly 80's bands.

Iron Maiden: Visions Of The Beast
One I got again recently. All their video's plus animated video's of songs, it's a great double disc D.V.D. if you're a fan of the band.
Posted by aTomiK (Member # 6575) on :
Visions of the Beast is excellent. I also love their History of Iron Maiden documentaries:
The History of Iron Maiden – Part 1: The Early Days Part 2 can be found on Live After Death dvd Part 3 can be found on Maiden England dvd

I got this today with the mail :
Brand new to dvd, Taste's live performance at the 1970 Isle Of Wight festival, only weeks before they split up and Rory Gallagher started his solo career.
They released this on multiple formats (cd, dvd, blu-ray, and double-vinyl). I wish they'd made it a dvd + cd combopack though, instead of releasing all formats individually.
(* although several songs turned up on the 1974 double-vinyl album Roxy & Elsewehere)

Love the Iron Maiden artwork.
Posted by Bernie_Lomax (Member # 8571) on :
I have a psychology lecturer that looks like Eddie from Iron Maiden - of course I wouldn't tell her that I am confident that many maiden fans initially got lured in because of the fantastic artwork.

just a few music oriented dvd's i own:
Posted by Johnny Roarke is reckless (Member # 9826) on :
Seems like someone is definitely into punk music here !
Interesting batch of titles you mentioned, Xchazx.
I've only seen The Decline Of Western Civilization 1 & 2 (although the second one was more about metal rather than punk).
That Bauhaus dvd seems to be getting some raving reviews on Amazon. Looks good !

Did Oden even make it anywhere. I remember in Declinethe singer was sasaying it was just a matter of time before they went big.

Watched Deep Purple - ...To The Rising Sun in Tokyo blu last weekend. Highly enjoyable stuff from these veterans. One more album please!

Arrived today :
The Jimi Hendrix Experience live at the Atlanta Pop Festival, july 4th 1970
This festival footage was filmed by Steve Rash, who went on to direct Can't Buy Me Love (1987) amongst others.
Even though Jimi would be dead within 10 weeks after this show, this isn't the last of his performances captured on film. The Isle Of Wight gig (released on dvd as Blue Wild Angel) was recorded on august 30th 1970.
Jimi passed away only three weeks later, on the 18th of september.

The Complete Jam On Film '77 - '82 came out over a decade ago, while About The Young Idea came out just last week.
About The Young Idea is a feature-length documentary, which also includes a second disc with a full 1980 concert from Germany's Rockpalast archives. A CD version of the concert is included as well !
I have two more DVDs of The Jam, but they were included in the "Super Deluxe" editions of their Setting Sons and The Gift albums. These discs were never released seperately.
Posted by Johnny Roarke is reckless (Member # 9826) on :
Lovely new box-set contains 4 dvds (one documentary and three complete concerts) plus 1 cd. The Deluxe edition is packaged in a very nice 60 page hardcover book. Video-quality is limited to the way the concerts were shot back in '95, but the sound-quality is top-notch !
Totally Stripped is a great addition to last year's 'From The Vault' series, and is available on multiple formats, including blu-ray, dvd, cd, vinyl, and various combinations.
