Bee Gees - One Night Only / The Official Story
R**.
Priceless! Best purchase I've ever made on Amazon.
Priceless! Love this collector's set. The entire "One Night Only" concert at MGM Las Vegas in 1997 on DVD is awesome with excellent quality. The other DVD "The Official Story..." is even better in my opinion. It has a wonderful history of the Bee Gees with countless interviews and videos. An added bonus is the video of the song "This Is Where I Came In." It is definitely my favorite Bee Gees video. Barry, Robin, and Maurice must have had a blast making this video. It's just brothers being brothers! They are so funny together. Absolutely love it. If you like the Bee Gees, you will LOVE this collector's set!

Absolutely Loved it
For fans of any era of the Bee Gees, this is an awesome selection to purchase. The live concert was great, it even contained a few songs not usually found on other albums, such as them singing Grease instead of that other guy on the soundtrack. Also includes Run To Me and Heartbreaker, both of which I don't have yet on CD, but will soon.The biography story was especially great, maybe a bit long for some, (two hours I think), but really great for the devoted fan. This was recorded before Maurice died, so it's also interesting to hear them speak of each other and their love even before the tragedy. Also included on the DVD is their new video, This Is Where I Came In.I shared the set with my mom who was a bit skeptical at first and doesn't often find time to watch such things, but she really loved it too, every minute of it she said. She's gonna buy her own copy asap, you should too.

Mesmerizing
The Bee Gees were the first band I really loved growing up. Sad to say I never owned any of their albums as I was rather young and money was tight in those days. Over the years I grew away from them and listened to other artists. It is only recently that I've rediscovered them and I'm so glad I have. It's easy to forget how they dominated the music scene in the 70s, whether it was their own recordings or songs they had written for others. They were literally everywhere.I enjoyed watching the 2-hour documentary. I never really knew their story and I surely didn't know the early years. It makes me want to check out their older recordings. I also enjoyed seeing them as real people and express their love for each other and their families. You just didn't see interviews like that back in the day.I also enjoyed the concert. Their harmonies send chills down my spine. Some of the songs I had forgotten about and was pleased to hear again. I don't have a wide-screen tv yet, so I can't really complain about it not being recorded in wide-screen, but maybe someday it will be re-released that way.

A Real Treat And An Historic Event!
This kind of combination of DVD's at this price is almost unheard of. You will pay more if you buy either just, "One Night Only" or "The Offical Story" separately. They are virtually the same discs. The Gibbs decided to release this special package as, obviously, with the terrible passing of Maurice Gibb, this is the last concert and last series of interviews about the famous siblings and their families.As the final Bee Gees DVD (officially) this set includes the entire MGM Grand concert from Las Vegas, Nevada (1997) and the brilliant 'life story' interviews of the Gibb family history from their humble beginnings in Manchester, England to the year 2001. If you ever wanted to really know what the three brothers are like, this is the most intimate interview they have ever done. To this day, they remain unjaded and still have the urge for that next big song or album. The overall atmosphere is upbeat and cheery. It's the kind of interview interspersed with film clips, song tracks and video. This is the ultimate Bee Gees keeper. Enjoy!

I love their music
Every since I saw the tribute to the Bee Gees on TV, I became addicted to them. Had to buy this one because it told me the story of Bee Gees from birth to the present. I love their music.

Beegees One Night Only so happy to have the CD
Love the Beegees. It was great to hear their story and made me love their music all the more. So sorry they are no longer here on earth but I'll bet they are still singing together and waiting for their brother to join them but he's still singing here and I hope for a long time yet.

Bee Gees fan you'll enjoy!
If you are a Bee Gees fan you'll enjoy this! Also the addition of the video and song "This Is Where I Came In", shows you the direction the group was heading. I think it's another example of their incredible ability to transform themselves and their musical style. I just wish they and us could have had more time to explore this direction.

Terrific bio.
Bought the set for the biography which is 2 1/2 hours long. An excellent biography, the best I've seen. Good interviews from the late Robin and Maurice although would have liked even more! Worth it.

2 DVDs in 1 BOX = Super
Wer die einzelnen DVDs der Bee Gees noch nicht hat kann hier zuschlagen.Die Box beinhaltet das Konzert " One Night Only " MGM in DTS ( Der Sound ist echt super, als wäre man live dabei ) und die Bio " The official Story " mit einer länge von 150 min. Beides zusammen gesehen ist Kino mit Überlänge. Macht aber total Spaß. Danach will man noch mehr von den Bee Gees sehen und hören. Schade das es keine Konzerte mehr von den dreien gibt. Von mir aus könnte es noch Jahre so weiter gehen.
