I found Classic Albums: John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band to be entirely entertaining. There are quite a few "little seen" clips of John Lennon at different events. One really rare segment is John and Yoko's appearance on "Parkinson" in July of 1971.

One of the coolest parts of Classic Albums: John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band is the time with the engineers. Here they pull out the multi-track tapes, and while playing them they isolate out specific tracks so you can hear Voorman's bass riffs, Starr's drum lines, or even Lennon's blood curdling screams. There are even shots of the EMI Tape boxes which show the dates of the recordings. Very cool inside stuff.

If you are a Lennon fan, a fan of rock musical history, or even just a history buff, Classic Albums: John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band is really a must own DVD. It is extraordinarily well done, and definitely worth the price of admission.
