The Beatles Anthology (1995–1996)
10/10
The Beatles continual influence
9 June 2007
I was watching parts 8 and 9 period covering Magical Mystery Tour to Hey Jude with my nine year old son and his friend. They both knew all the songs and said how much they liked them. During the I am the Walrus performance from Magical Mystery Tour they were really curious as to which Beatle was the walrus. Well we all know the Walrus was Paul so I told them. My point is these two kids love the Beatles just as I did when I was 9 and just as I do now. The magic lives on.

The Beatles Anthology is probably the most comprehensive film or video bio ever released. It covers so much information and because so many songs are discussed we are reminded again of how great they really were. These DVD have some flaws , there is some camera trickery here or there that is intrusive, song and filmed performances are sometimes interrupted by commentary . For example Hey Jude is cut away from,and also some interviews. It is amazing how much footage there is of the Beatles. For a Beatles fan (and who isn't) this is essential viewing.
