Title: dont let this gem get away
Product review: X made four brilliant albums on the trot. not many cared. this film captures them in their prime. for fans like myself who came to their music long after and who will never get to see them live- this DVD is a great keepsake. forget all that goes through your mind when you think 'music documentary'. this starts with a fictional conceit, goes into a live performance, then voiceovers and informal interviews, and finally edits of montages of newsreels adverts etc. All four strands brilliantly edited together back and forth and sure to bear repeated viewings. No extras though (probably because there was no band input on this release)and over way too quickly. Well, hopefully there may be a better edition years down the line, but get this before it becomes out of print. Just beautiful.
