In response to the review below: The DVD title is NOT misleading: the name of the team documentary within the DVD is titled "Red, White & Blues: Indianapolis Racers hockey 1974-1979," and this is just one feature of the DVD as a whole. There is additional Gretzky content in the game footage, radio broadcasts, and also in the electronic book. The DVD is about Gretzky, Indianapolis and the WHA as a whole -- and that is what the title indicates.

I have never seen MORE accurate information or maetrials about Wayne Gretzky's start as a major league player. Check out the other 2 DVDs in this series for a lot more on the World Hockey Associaiton, one of them has even more newly uncovered Gretzky-Racers footage...

The title is misleading (The title on the DVD is actually Red, White and Blues). There is only one chapter involving Wayne Gretzky. I was expecting much more given the title. If you like hockey this is a decent movie to watch. If you are more of a Gretzky fan, the movie may dissapoint. The 1978 Oilers/Racers is a nice bonus.

This is a great dvd not only for the Indianapolis Racers fans but also WHA and hockey history fans. This is a good complement to the Timothy Gassen book publishing in 2007. ( In the dvd bonus you have a updated electronic version of the book! )
You will discover a hockey market with great hockey fans. Rare footage included in the dvd. The bonus are simply fantastic! You will get 3 hours of rare radio game of the 70's. the quality of the sound is excellent. Also in the bonus 23 pages of articles from Racers publications. A lot of story about the team.
If you liked the dvd set `` WHA chronicles`` buy that dvd too.
6 hours of great hockey! With the dvd i become a Indianapolis Racers fan!
