"Don't bother with this DVD. Another DVD is available with the exact same content and much better quality.

Seek out "A Rocumentary of the 1964 Tour" produced by Legacy Entertainment - LEDVD 5007, NTSC, Region 1. However, I was unable to find this DVD for sale through amazon.com, so you may have to look elsewhere.

The content of that DVD is two programs - "The Beatles Down Under" which features interviews with fans and a lengthy interview with John, Paul, George and Jimmy Nichol. The other program, "The Beatles On the Road" is a more standard history of the band but still interesting.

However, this DVD, just called "The Beatles Down Under Plus On The Road" is sub-par quality. It looks like a screen was filmed and transferred to DVD, and in the process, you see a border on all four sides of the image. In essence, the video image is shrunk. Plus the quality is worse than "A Rocumentary", even though the content is identical.

Hope this helps."

DON"T EVEN MIND THIS DVD!

"I just wanna say to every beatleman: don't bothered with this DVD. It was rerecorded from VHS and its quality is the worse i've ever seen! The sound is awful (there are unknown track instead of Beatles's songs half of time). I've never thought something with the Beatles would be so annoying! Moreover, it's 'made in Thailand'!
You know it's up to you, but i wouldn't buy this if i knew...
