Advantages: Marvelous videos Disadvantages: Not any interviews with the band apart from DVD ROM
...I thought it was time I reviewed Duran Durans greatest on DVD.
This is a two disk set and also a region 0 that means it can play on any DVD player.
The packaging on this is very nice and quite simple, white box and when you open it up bars of colour on the inlay covers. The disks have no fancy pictures on but are nice silver disks with Greatest I or II on them.
As you put either of the disks on the menu has GREATEST and you can navigate through the letters on each disk that bring you into the menu of songs or features for that letter on each disks. Very clever.
All of the songs are the original music videos unless I state otherwise.
I shall take you through what is on it :
Disk 1
The letter R contains:
Planet Earth. This is one of their first videos on one of the earliest videos that was released and shown on top...

Advantages: All of Billys hits on one DVD Disadvantages: Only 2 hours long
...The worlds greatest comedians' work on one DVD, yes its Billy Connolly. He has made people cry with laughter all over the world for over 40 years and he's still going strong. All of his greatest hits are on this DVD from when he started out in 1970's up until the modern day. There are over 2 hours of his best live shows from around the world on the DVD so what more do you want?
In this DVD Billy performs in his usual comic manner telling his extremely funny stories and his side-splitting quick thinking making everyday things a classic moment of comedy. He's quite simply the most successful popular British stand-up comedian of modern times!
This DVD sum's Mr Billy Connolly up write to the tee and will show any comedian what real comedy is really about. This DVD deserves a place on your DVD shelf!...
