![]() Some people have been complaining about the quality of this video. Something to keep in mind is that it's got "Home Vid" in the title. The most recent of the footage was shot in 1987 with camcorders. Nearly all of the footage is from bootleg videos. Don't expect a pristine, dolby surround sound experience. This is a video for true fans of Cliff Burton. Some of us didn't get to see him while he was alive, so this is the next best thing we have. It's just being released on DVD for people who have DVD players, not to show off the capabilities of the DVD format. For people who might just now be buying this video for the first time and not rebuying it (like myself), you might want to keep that in mind. ![]() I have read the reviews of this DVD submitted by other fans of Metallica and believe an honest account may save some money for someone. I too am a fan, not only of the band but also the DVD format. This recording may well be 'raw' and 'gutsy' but I found it disappointing. It does no justice to the band or the format. The picture quality is very poor throughout and the sound is terrible. Sorry but it's only fair that people are aware of what to expect. Save your money for a more recent Metallica production. I wish I did! ![]() Well I have to be honest, this is not one of the best quality DVD out there but it is greatly remastered from the previously released video and for once for can see metallicas first bassit Cliff Burton play his heart out without the terrible limitations of video. However I would ONLY recommend this for MetallicA fans. ![]() I love metallica and I have owned the video of this release for over 5 years and I can easily say that this DVD surpases it in every sense. The sound is great and the picture quality is outstanding considering it was made from bootleg footage. Just a really good DVD period. ![]() This DVD is RAW but this is definitely REAL! I was a senior at Castro Valley High in 1977. There was this shy, Quiet, long haired, red headed kid named Cliff Burton. He carried a Guitar case everywhere he went. I had no idea what an innovative musical bass master he was to become! His amazing talents are shown on this DVD, along with a personal side thats very cool! Dave Mustane also appears on some of the early show footage. We will never know what Cliff could have accomplished, due to his untimely and tragic passing. This DVD captures his and Metallica's early greatness! I for one miss Cliff Burton! This is your chance to see a truely great Bassist and Metal Band live and behind the scenes. |
