Somewhere between three and four stars ...

... I would settle this DVD. Alan Parsons provides entertaining knowledge, sometimes further tips are, but who hopes to tap into the rich knowledge of the studio Legend sustainably, which is wrong here. Much has not carried out stringently and a newbie is still probably overwhelmed.
A minus point is there for the German dubbing, which is appalling. As should have been taking professional speaker. Alone the sound and the modulation of dubbing voice is already uncomfortable, there are some very strange neologisms. Here prefer to take the English original soundtrack - which is in fact in order.
What makes the DVD partly very rewarding, are those of the interviews, the aim slightly go off the concrete expertise and more on the story.
The package is given the price a slight Fechheit. Beautiful envelope, otherwise cheap cardboard. Since a normal quadruple CD case would even have been a better choice - then maybe with a small booklet.
An ambiguous offer - the beginners will definitely more compact and less expensive textbooks, the advanced will often miss the "depth". You do not necessarily have.
