Your favorite HOME VIDEOS? Who did you throw $20 down on?

[Chip Z'Hoy]

All-time favorite(s): A Year and a Half in the Life of Metallica, specifically the studio half of it.

I really like the studio ones, like Aerosmith's The Making of Pump.

I had Ozzy's Don't Blame Me. I watched that one a lot. "Get the gun, get the gun, shoot shoot shoot shoot."

The Danzig home videos are absolute classics. Just 100% pure Danzigry.

Pantera 3: Watch it Go remains incredible. All of their home videos were great but that one is a work of art.

I love The Beatles Anthology. I've probably watched that whole series a dozen times.

Kiss had some good ones! eXposed, of course, then X-treme Close-Up and Kiss Konfidential in the early 90's, Second Coming around the reunion era.

Motley Crue's Uncensored is great but I think I like Decade of Decadence better. "Tommy Lee! He's got a gorgeous body!" "WHA??!!"

I loved Bon Jovi's Access All Areas. I took it to my friends' houses to get them to watch it.

[SterileEyes1]

Another vote for the Pantera videos. I could watch the clip of that pickup truck driving into a brick wall on loop for an hour.

Ozzy's Don't Blame Me.
"Ladders To Fire."

[SeniorGrande]

Skid Row "Oh Say Can You Scream"

[kytepunches]

I had a Janes Addiction and a Chilli Peppers on VHS , though i can't remember the names . I enjoyed both.

My faves are PANTERA Vulgar Videos and 3:Watch it Go, KISS Xposed, Metallica : Year and a half, Cannibal Corpse : Global Eviscertaion, Lamb of God: Walk With me in Hell and Killadelphia, The Black Dahlia Murder : Fool 'Em All, and CHIMAIRA : The Dehumanizing Process

Funny. I was just thinking about how cool A Year and a Half in the Life of Metallica was, and how I need to watch it again. Turns out, the whole thing is on YouTube...

It's almost impossible to believe a band so cool, funny and inspired is the same one on Some Kind of Monster. It's like night and day.

Also loved Cliff 'Em All, which was basically a collection of bootleg performances.

How does that work? Did they have to track down each bootlegger and pay them for the rights? Or did they just steal it back?

[CANT_GET_ENUFF69]

Oh man, I forgot about SOME KIND OF MONSTER. It's a tough watch, but it's a classic... So many quotables in that shit. "Delete that.." is the most famous

[Mister Freeze]

Aside from the Metallica stuff, the unholy trifecta that wore out my VCR was...

KISS Exposed

Motley Crue Uncensored

And believe it or not, W.A.S.P. Videos in the Raw

All three did a fun job with the mini-documentary thing, which I loved.

Honorable mention goes to the Danzig home video for the first album. The interviews are hilarious, especially Glenn talking about the "lost books of the bible" and teenage Jesus killing some kid.

I miss the Satanic '80s sometimes.

KISS ”Animalize - Live Uncensored”
Today I bet Paul wish it had been censored but what a fantastic gig/video! ”Exposed” is great as well but it had already been mentioned.
Mötley Crüe ”Uncensored” was great as well!

[daveg]

All the Kiss ones. Probably watched Operation Live crime,
Night rangers 7 Wishes Live or Def Leppard In the Round the most

[WentEast]

Judas Priest Live Vengeance '82 - should have had a companion live album)
Duran Duran Sing Blue Silver (worth it for the opening press conference scene alone)
https://youtu.be/bMoN1KR3kyw

Black Sabbath Early Years vol 1&2 (before YouTube, was a first glimpse at all that cool early Paris concert and Born Again era footage)

And a strong second for Don't Blame Me. I still show it to people who only know Ozzy from the TV show. He was so .... coherent in that documentary.

[Engine13]

Cliff 'em All Metallica
Oh say can you scream- Skids
Also A Lemonheads vid

[Mister Freeze]

A $19.99 price tag was the universal sign a band put out a worthwhile home video.

"KISS Crazy Nights" was something like $12.99, and just the three videos from the album. Nothing else.

That came out the year after Xposed which they promoted by saying “other bands just put their music videos out on video, we would never ever do that, that’s just a cash grab”.

[rubysdad]

It hadn’t occurred to me earlier because I’d never bother now, but before the arrival of the internet and YouTube the Van Halen Live without a Net was very special because it gave us a chance to see Eddie play live.

[TravisBicklesMohawk]

Duran Duran's first video release was actually the very first thing I rented. Must have watched/rented that thing dozens of times.

And I agree about Danzig. Their home videos were the best!!!

[Nobodyspecial]

Dokken, Unchain the Night was my fave.

Me too.
