Mill Creek Entertainment's Three-Disc DVD Collection Of The British Invision Ready For Fans On Aug. 11

Mill Creek Entertainment marks rock ‘n’ roll history on Aug. 11 with the three-disc DVD release of The British Invasion, a five-documentary collection showcasing the talents of The Beatles, The Who and The Rolling Stones ... priced to own and complete Digital Copy.

So what is included here?  

We begin with the documentary team of Eduardo Eguia Dibildox and Brian Huckeba’s 2003 film, The Beatles: A Long and Winding Road, which breaks down the history of the “Lads from Liverpool” into five unique time periods.

The first chapter, 1940 through 1958, focuses on the early lives of John, Paul, George and Ringo.   

The next period, 1958 – 1960, looks at the formation of the group, their early “gigs” and how The Beatles finally came together.   This is followed by “Beatle Mania” (1960 – 1962) and then Dibildox and Huckeba get to the glory years of the “British Invasion” (1963 – 1966) and the last segment recaps what has taken place since 1967.

No history of The Beatles would be complete without a look at the man who guided their early career, this is documented in the hour-long production from 2004, Brian Epstein: Inside the 5^th Beatle.

A nice companion piece to the Brian Epstein biography is director Henry Stephens’ feature-length documentary Inside John Lennon, which examines his early life, his career with The Beatles, the break-up, his relationship with Yoko Ono to his tragic murder at the hands of Mark David Chapman.

The fourth documentary included in this unique collection from Mill Creek Entertainment on DVD is documentary filmmaker Ron DeMaraes’ The Who: The Vegas Job, which zeros-in on the Pete Townshend, John Entwistle and Roger Daltry of The Who and their legendary 1999 concert at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas.   Included in the set list that night were “Magic Bus,” “Pinball Wizard,” “I Can’t Explain” and more.   

And last, but certainly not least is documentary filmmaker Steven Vosburgh’s five-part series, The Rolling Stones: Just For The Record.

Through intimate archived interviews with Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Brian Jones … and more, we are guided through “The Sixties,” “The Seventies,” “The Eighties,” “The Nineties” and “Two Thousand and Beyond.”
