Paul McCartney - The McCartney Years (DVD, 2007, 3-Disc Set)

Paul McCartney|Theatrical release: 2007 | Rating: Not Rated

Movie synopsis

The folks at popular archivist label Rhino have dug up an exhaustive range of Paul McCartney material for this collection of his video work. The focus here is firmly on McCartney's post-Beatles career, and the combination of rare concert material and more than 40 music videos will be rapturously received by his dedicated fanbase. The material stretches back as far as 1970 and the release of the first McCartney solo record before progressing through Wings-era highlights, which include a rare promo feature for BAND ON THE RUN. More recent material includes a chance to see McCartney and band producing a glorious headline set at 2004's Glastonbury Festival, "Let It Be" from Live Aid, and a 1991 entry into MTV's lauded UNPLUGGED series. With over four hours of material included, and audio commentary provided by the former Beatle himself, this is an essential collection for fans.

Paul McCartney-The McCartney Years(2007,DVD)

Created: 12/05/08
This DVD set is an outstanding representation of 'Sir Paul McCartneys' musical career spanning nearly 4 decades of video promos' & concert footage! A recomendation for 'Wings" fans as well!! This is a 3 disc set, with the first 2 representing his early solo material as well as his work in his band 'WINGS'! The 3rd disc contains concert footage along with some special features!! I rate this set 5 stars!!

Skip right to disc three

Created: 10/05/08
The 1st 2 of these three discs is made up of music videos that span McCartney's solo career (including his brief collaborations with Michael Jackson). While some of the music has stood the test of time, the videos all look very dated; some weren't very good to begin with. The 3rd disc is the real gem of this set. It contains various live performances from McCartney's 1976 tour of America, a good chunk of a European concert with his current band, his appearance at LIVE AID, the Super Bowl, and MTV's unplugged. Releasing all of these performances in their entirety would have constituted a MUCH better collection.

Testament To Greatness!

Created: 04/10/08
This 3-DVD set is beautifully organized. The post-Beatles McCartney music videos and live performances are a testament to the brilliance of this man as a song writer and performer. The other material is similarly first class. As great a fan as I am of Paul, this set strengthens my convictions of his level of greatness. Also, this Asian issue of the set is packaged a little differently than the US version. It is not in the traditional DVD set box, but rather a slim slip-folder arrangement. That suits me just fine. I strongly advise this set for anyone giving even the slightest thought about buying it.

Great DVD

Created: 05/03/08
This is the best collection of post-Beatles material available on Paul McCartney. Its a three disc set, that covers everything from 1970 to 2005. Everything is digital remastered, and what I'm most impressed with is the ROCKSHOW concert, the quality is fantastic. The music videos are a must have for any McCartney fan, and will even let you rediscover some of these classic songs.

My only complaints are the lack of RAM footage, and I was hoping for more extra features, like Paul at the Cavern Club in the nineties, or the complete Abbey Road: Chaos and Creation concert (Even though it does include special behind the scenes footage.)

All in all, this collection is obviously a gem, and if you don't have it you should buy it, phenomenal.

Well Worth Owning!

Created: 20/10/08
Paul McCartney's The McCartney Years is the definitive McCartney DVD. It has 3 DVDs spanning his career. It is filled with music videos, concert performances, interviews, and informal discussions where Paul gives away lots of his insider tips, from how he writes music to various ways that both he and the Beatles created different ground-breaking sounds. This DVD shows Paul McCartney in all his song-writing diversity, from a birthday song, song from father to son, song for the lonely, to a song for peace (and songs for nearly every other human condition we may experience). Paul about covers it all, and splendidly! If you like Paul McCartney, this is not a DVD to miss! This DVD can be enjoyed over and over again. In fact, I'm going to go put it on right now!
