Yes, it's an interesting piece of work. The video medium used here, the "Porta-Pak" system, wasn't as highly evolved as today's videos, so pretty much everything has a grainy look.
But, to see inside, to see a close-up backstage look at the BBs and some of the dynamics involved, its a must see.
Dennis is great. Carl can be funny. intercut with interview segments( recent) it's a nice video.
There's a lot of Ricky Fataar here. And It's hard to imagine the difference in looks then/now for Carli Munoz.
Billy signed mine for me,( I asked) so I have to say a Special THANK YOU to him for that!

Got my copy yesterday, watched it today. Wow.
The day-by-day touring-life is great to watch. Building up the stage, soundchecks, Ricky practising the pedal steel, the conversations (in airplanes, hotels, etc.), a lot of attention for ALL members of the band. The live footage snippets make you wish there was more... weird to see them perform The Trader and Marcella at Joliet Memorial the day after I was born...
And what was Dennis doing, fooling around with that camera with "the chick" in that hotel room?
Billy did a great job !! Can't wait for the next project. (1975 anyone?)

Hard to describe how cool this really is. First and foremost, this was a true labor of love for Billy, so much in fact, that he had very real concerns about sharing his very first video project with the public, particularly one that is so near and dear to his heart.
In a sense, Hinsche tested the waters over the last several years with his "One In A Million" tribute recording and video of Dennis from this footage, and the very enjoyable "The Match" (both appearing on Billy's "The Road Well Traveled" DVD). Both gave us brief insight into the 1974 tour, but hardly scratched the surface. The video quality suffers at times, but the insight and testimonials given by Jim Guercio, Ed Carter, Bobby Figueroa, Ricky Fataar, Carli Munoz, road manager Rick Nelson, Steve Moffitt, and Billy add the needed depth to this documentary.
Billy closes the set with an in-depth explanation of the type of video he used in 1974, and several nice touches are included that add very nice historical nuances. Hinsche's project is an invaluable resource, as well as true keepsake for any Beach Boys fan. Watching the Beach Boys on tour during a time when they were rediscovering themselves and slowly gaining recognition from a second generation of fans is fascinating, and it's great to see footage of Dennis and Carl Wilson.
This video offers rare video footage that we'll be talking about for the rest of our lives, and for generations to come.

The film quality, because of the transpiring years, suffers at times...

Excuse me, but did you watch the "in-depth explanation"? There was
never
any
film
involved with this at all! We were shooting, (as bgas points out above), on a Sony VideoTape Porta-Pak system, which was half-inch black & white
videotape
, threaded on open reels, like audio tape. So the transpiring years had nothing to do with it; this was basically the first type of videotape that could be shot without being tied to huge recorders, so the quality wasn't all that great to begin with. Very shortly after this was shot, we acquired a 3/4" color camera & recorder, that shot on these huge cassette type tapes.

I think they're using film and videotape interchangeably here.

Ed, I worked for a public television station back in the '70s and remember when we switched to 3/4" format, from 2-inch. Those 2-inch tape playback machines were huge, the size of a chest freezer. The 3/4" tape editing/playback machines took up less space, but yeah the cassettes were still pretty big, as cassettes go.
I am delighted with Billy's DVD -- a truly unique view of a moment in time for the BBs. I love the "fly-on-the-wall" character of this film. You get to see the individual BBs as real people, and how life on the road unfolds.
Billy has just extended his free shipping offer through the end of January, 2010, so there's another good reason to order

Dunno if I've just been lazy or dumber than usual, but it struck me a few moments ago that I hadn't ordered this yet. The situation has been remedied.

And now comes the inevitable question: Are there any insights given as to the lifestyle of Dennis and/or Brian from this time period? Is Brian seen or heard from at all in the documentary?

No. and No.
Spectacularly mundane.
But, truth be told, also fascinating, for the very same reason.

Without seeing the DVD yet I expect Billy to respect the 'what happens on tour, stays on tour' code.

Thanks Ed. Yes I did watch the entire video presentation, and if you note, at the end of my mini review, I state that Billy offers the in-depth explanation. I don't have a background in film/video, but Billy read my review and posted to me how pleased he was with it, and wasn't upset at the use of the word "film" at all, in fact he didn't even mention it.
Out of respect for Billy and yourself, I went back and updated my initial post to reflect your insight. Never intended to offend you over the use of the word film.
I trust that this visual recording of an historic time brings back some great memories for you; it's a fascinating homage to the Beach Boys.

1974...Dennis was virtually straight compared to several years later. No trace of any lifestyle deterioration here. Also, Dennis brings Brian into the film in one scene.

The way he brings Brian into the film (dvd
) is for me one of the most priceless moments of the many...
And didn't mean to be so curt, David; still mind blowing to me to see all of this stage stuff that was some
of the very first video that I had shot, that I had thought was long gone...
