I had a suspicionDec 01, 2006
By John Ellinger
Came upon this video and decided to purchase it without much info. It's recollections from a few people (God knows who they are) mostly repeating what you can find in any basic history of The Who. Not worth it except for the amusement of watching the "Coughing Dude".

This is a waste of time. If you want a REAL documentary of The Who, get The Kids Are Alright.

Only Because 0 Stars was not an OptionJan 14, 2007
By Jack Keck
"Jack"
I watched it once. I took it to the used cd store. They told me they'd give me $4.00 for it. I told them, "No more than $2.00. It sucks." We settled on $3.00. This is a cobbled-together bunch of interview segments by a bunch of British guys that I didn't even catch the names of.
I didn't think much of THE MOON YEARS, either, but at least it had some more coherence to it.
STUNNING in its terribleness! (Only for Who completists!)Nov 13, 2010

"Who fan"
This is a 40 minute DVD of three old british guys talking about how much they love The Who. History of the band is covered, but there's nothing in this DVD that can't be found - and presented better - elsewhere.
The "documentary" is literally close-up shots of three quite frankly ugly, uninteresting english fellows. This video consists of mostly only these three gentlemen talking. (Occasionally, they'll break from the talking heads and show some Who footage, which isn't even that interesting. Number 1, the videos can be found elsewhere, and number 2, no Who audio is included. You are stuck with a bland elevator rock music substitute playing in the background.) I got real sick of watching this very quickly.
I would only recommend this DVD for Who completists.
Not even worth a rentalMar 24, 2009
By Alan A. Scaggs
Thankfully I viewed this with a Netflix rental so I don't feel I lost too much money on it. You will get more from a conversation with a fellow Who fan than you will this. It consists of poor filming of some people (who knows who they are) telling even the smallest fan nothing they don't already know. If you want a good documentary get Amazing Journey: The Story of the Who, and The Kids are Alright.
