The DVD is a bit "Lennon-heavy", but to be fair, Lennon's "outside The Beatles" recording was more prolific in a way. Sure, Paul did a lot of experimenting in those years, but not much made vinyl.

I love the trilogy of DVDs, though, and has watched them more than once. Fantastic for the true fans.

A horrible DVD that does not depict the post output of McCartney fairly. It is inaccurate and slanted. Sounds like Yoko wrote it. All McCartney fans should stay away.

Please buy this if you are likely to enjoy a completely sycophantic deluded lesson on the greatness of john lennon as a solo artist then this is the dvd for you.
any mention of mccartney's work is not only severly biased but far too slightly covered.
the truth is lennon missed mccartney as much as the other way around,indeed possibly much more.
john lennons early 1970s work is totally overated here whilst paul mccartney's is totally underated.
this is not a balanced view and a a pretty miserable beatles docu.
i do believe the next in the series covering their work from 1973-1980 is actually being released this week [nov2011].
it will be interesting to see the 'lennon spin' his hero worshipers put on his miserable output during this period whilst mccartney went on to become the biggest selling artist in the world all over again.!
