    History of Rock 'n Roll...not quite!

    I was so excited to get this collection but boy, was I ever disappointed. The 5 DVD set features some of the most awesome performances by some of the greatest Rockers in the world! But they missed so many more. It went from the 60s, to the 70s, to the 90's, and practically dimissed the 80s. They thrashed Disco, yet devoted the the last DVD to Punk and Rap.The commentaries were from only a few rock stars (I'm guessing the only ones they could find) and some were biased in the musical opinions. I was hoping this set would be an A -Z tell all, but it was in fact, only someone else's favorite Rock 'n Roll artists.

    Boring

    Not what I expected. It's bias attitude for giving credit for all rock & roll to one group & not enough music video's . In other words to much edit not enough misic !

    Excellent over view of rock history

    Saw this on PBS back in the early 90s. Time to watch it again.
