The book alone is worth the purchase for me. LOVE LOVE LOVE all the great RANDY pics! It has tons of Randy pics and it is LP album sized. Really happy with it!!
DVD:
The main documentary is awesome and has tons of good stuff with outtakes in the studio and Ozzy seems really genuine. The interviews are great and I liked what Nikki Sixx says. It is shorter than I expected or it just goes by so fast because it is so good. I was wanting more at the end. I cried at the end also. I have not cried in years. Randy's death still to this day hurts me so much.
In my opinion the Palladium footage is just ok, but "just ok" speaking of Randy footage is awesome because ANYTHING halfway decent of Randy is RARE and we all want to see it. So is it worth seeing? YES.
For me it is like being at the concert and sitting off to the left on Rudy's side and looking across the stage over at Randy being the furthest away. It is like you are at the concert and you have good seats near the front but not right up by Randy (which is where you want to be). It is unfortunately very frustrating when the camera doesn't show Randy when you want it to. It does show him alot but not like we would film him knowing all his guitar parts. There are some good parts though. I have watched it 3 times so far now and I like it better each time I watch it. Don't expect super clear pro quality because it is not that. It cuts in the middle of the parts so be prepared to be yelling at your tv about that. I assume the super 8 reels ended and he had to reload. He plays 3 of his guitars. Polka V, White Jackson V (C), and of course his Les Paul. It leaves you wanting more but I will take it as it is and enjoy it for what it is.
The After Hours footage is the best I have ever seen or heard it. The whole complete After Hours is there so we finally get the "official" release of that. Sound quality is definitely better than my bootleg DVD I bought a few years ago. Just having this look and sound as good as it does is AWESOME!!! So this is a good thing even though most of us have probably already seen it. Now we have the "definitive" version of it (unless the other camera angles footage surfaces).
I will continue this in a minute. Gotta grab a vitamin water from the fridge and take my dachshunds out.
Now THIS is what I'm talking about!! THAT my friends is a review!! MORE MORE MORE pleeeeeeeeeaseShaolin, what did you think of the Diary footage?
Yes. Thank you very much. How is the Diary footage and how many songs?
but it is good footage.
