Title: chronicles??? Post by: Steve Mayo on September 21, 2015, 09:10:51 AM has anyone seen this item? I did a quick search here and did not see a thread on it, if i missed it i'm sorry. if anyone has seen this, any opinions? is it more than what is out on various specials? i have never seen this dvd before. i have a few amazon gift cards I wanna use and this caught my eye for some reason. messed up my back in a fall outside in june and haven't been here much since then.

Post by: HeyJude on September 21, 2015, 12:23:08 PM There was/is a Beach Boys "Videobiography" available on DVD, which was packaged as a hardbound book with a version of AGD's "ComGuide." But that was done legitimately I believe, and the documentary was legit too. It was one of those talking head docs full of people you've never heard of, interspersed with a sprinkling of actual BB footage, the use of which is justified because it's a "critical review."

It's a boot, and probably looks like it too. Title: Re: chronicles???

Indeed legit. I was asked to do it and got paid. For them as is completists, not a redacted version of the ComGuide, but all newly (re)written and mostly expanded. And no, I'd never heard of any of the talking heads either. ;D |
