4.0 out of 5 stars Infotaining video of Britain's influence on American Rock, December 8, 2004
By T. Sparfeld (Miami, FL) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This video is the third in a 10-video set documenting Rock `n' Roll in America. It's very entertaining and informative.

The video begins in Liverpool, with glimpses of the Beatles' stomping grounds and their triumphal welcome in New York in 1964. Their success led to the swell of other British bands--the Rolling Stones, the Kinks, the Who, among others--most of whom epitomized rock's roots better than many American bands.

Despite the provocative title, there was no conflict when American bands "fought back." The American bands featured in the video--the Byrds, the Temptations, the Supremes, the Beach Boys--all loved the excitement of the British invasion.

Like the other videos, this series benefits from fantastic interviews by Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, Brian Wilson, Mick Jagger, and other firsthand performers, and is supported by edited vintage clips of the great bands. It could use some narration, however.

My favorite parts of this video are the old clips of the Stones--for some reason, old clips of Mick Jagger in performance are full of unintentional comedy for me.
