Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This DVD is terrible.Audio and Video quality are extremely poor, the production quality is below amateurish, and it's under 20 minutes long.The "instructor" is neither a gifted speaker or teacher, he's just some verbally challenged guy who hurries through demonstrating 56 one or two measure long segments from Beatles song. The songs are not referred to by name, they are known only as Riff 1 to 56.The "instructor" will play the "riff" once, then play it again slower, and move on to the next one. No instruction is given on how to play what he is playing, so this is not useful for a beginner.As for intermediate to advanced players, you will also learn nothing.(Save for the fact that you could probably make a much better video than this in a Saturday afternoon with your HandyCam...) There is no insight given into George, John or Paul's styles, technique, how they achieved certain sounds or effects, etc.However, the instructor does give you his thoughts on the Beatles body of work after the collection of riffs has been played.Unfortunately, he has no real thoughts, and just babbles inanely for a few minutes.(This actually is my favorite part of the video because it's like a scene out of "Spinal Tap".Sadly, it's not funny enough to be worth the purchase price.)
If you are a serious musician, or want to be, don't buy this.Warner markets a series of videos on the Beatles guitar style that you should check into instead. Although I have not seen them, I feel quite confident that they would at least be better than this.
