With a running time of more than three hours, this might seem like the kind of DVD that only die-hard fans of the legendary British group will enjoy. The fact is that even the casual fan, the kind who recognizes the songs but didn’t know it was The Hollies who recorded them, will find plenty to enjoy here. The interviews are good, and the movie does a great job of putting the band and their music in perspective, both in relationship to their peers (The Beatles and The Rolling Stones) and with music history (The Hollies were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2010). Best of all, the majority of musical performances in the film are live, which adds a lot of energy to the story.
