It's very good.Stevie disscusses the songs that make up the album & the other musicians that worked with him on it. They get together to perform "Sir Duke" and chat about the album. At one point , Stevie jokes about the number of unreleased songs in his vault... I would say it's well worth getting if your a fan of Stevie.

Yeah, I've got that DVD. It doesn't have any special features, but the quality of it is kinda medicore and amazing. It's a mixed bag with him talking about the album, recreating some of the songs like Sir Duke, I Wish, and As, having people like Coolio talking about how the album influenced him and why he sampled Pastime Paradise to have a #1 hit Gangsta's Paradise, and having the producers talk about some of the methods and techniques they did on this album. 80% of this DVD is good, but it lacks rare or unseen footage. It does have some unseen pictures which is good. To me, I think the album is better than this documentary. The album itself is a classic. This album got 4 or 5 Grammys and believe me, if you ain't got this one, your whole music collection is inccomplete. It's history..... Check me out and add me on:

Now listen I am a stevie fanatic.
More so than I am a prince fanatic. And I love prince. There are probably 3-4 great moments on the DVD. The rest of it is really mediocre. If you are not a stevie freak I wouldn't reccomend this DVD. Is there a stevie.org?? Dirt http://www.dirt.bz | |

I have this DVD and it's pretty interesting.It's not as in-depth as I would have liked,and only several songs are discussed (I wanted to know the inspiration and production techniques behind EVERY track on the album...lol).But if you're a Stevie fan,and if you love the 'SITKOL' album,this DVD is a must-have. | |
