Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

The opportunity to check out a handful of rarely seen, actual live performances by some fine British bands is the main appeal of The British Invasion, one of five discs included in the Rock n' Roll Goldmine boxed set. Hosted by Casey Kasem, who provides introductions and trivia, the 40–minute program contains live clips of the Kinks ("You Really Got Me"), Procol Harum ("A Salty Dog," with Robin Trower on guitar), and Traffic (the original Steve Winwood-Chris Wood-Jim Capaldi lineup does a rousing version of "40,000 Headmen") that are just about worth the price of admission by themselves. The pickings are slimmer elsewhere; additional clips, many of them lip-synced, range from curious (it's cool to see Jimmy Page as a member of the Yardbirds, but they're miming to the recording of "Heart Full of Soul," which featured Jeff Beck, not Page, on guitar) to lightweight (like Peter and Gordon's "World Without Love," written by Lennon & McCartney, or Gerry and the Pacemakers' "How Do You Do It," originally recorded but rejected by the Beatles) to merely laughable (the Troggs' "Wild Thing," a dumb classic and an even dumber "video"). --Sam Graham

4.0 out of 5 stars a fun ride!, May 23, 2004
By A Customer
Seeing the Troggs doing 'Wild Thing' in a subway station was the high point here for me. Very cool. The kids standing around in the 'audience' seem to not know quite what to think, and that just adds to the clip's charm. Adding choice footage from the Kinks, the Yardbirds, the Animals, Gerry and the Pacemakers and others make this disc one easy for me to recommend. A mix of performances with an audience and without, both lip-sync and live on stage. Could've done without the Procol Harum and Hollies, but that's a small gripe. Thumbs up on this one!

4.0 out of 5 stars Vintage rock footage, November 21, 2004
By CN (Las Vegas, NV USA) - See all my reviews
I had seen some of these clips before, but still enjoyed the DVD. Only 40 minutes long though. The Pacemakers, Animals, and Kinks performances appeared to be performed live; others are obviously mimed. But it's always great to see Chas Chandler do that bass line in the Animals song.

5.0 out of 5 stars very rare film cllips is worth the price of this dvd., September 30, 2008
By sexy dancer "mandy" (spring hill, florida) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
this is one good dvd about the british invasion because it features rare never-before-seen film clips of very popular british groups of the 60's. i would recommend this for all those british invasion buffs because some of the film clips were performed live, others were lip-synched but still very nice to watch to reminisce days of the 60's. highly recommended.
