The entire DVD presentation has been meticulously restored in sound and picture, more than half of which has never been previously released.

Quite frankly this is astonishingly good. The best parts are probably the two sit down shows. This DVD bears watching again and again. You can't miss it! Lots of extra features, great sound and picture quality - overall, it's a delight.
