20th Century Masters Styx DVD - Two Versions

Postby bugsymalone » Thu May 06, 2004 10:24 am

Apparently there are two different versions of the 20th Century Masters DVD around out there. Walmart has one with 5 videos on it. Someone on another site mentioned having one and it had 5 videos.

Several of you have mentioned the one you got has 6 videos.

So, what gives???

Those of you who bought the one with 6 videos, could you tell me where you got it and I will order THAT one, thankyouverymuch.

I pre-ordered mine from Best Buy but I didn't receive it yet. I hope it's the one with 6 videos :D

That's very interesting. I would like to know to where everyone purchased theirs from - if you bought one.

Got mine at Best Buy and it also had six. Maybe they aren't considering BCM a "video" since it is a live cut...
While on the subject of two versions... I seem to remember the Too Much Time video being a bit different from the one on the 20th Century. For example I remember TS lighting a bunch of cigs for some women and that isn't in what I have on DVD. I will have to dig out my old VHS video comp and take a look.

i got mine from walmart and it has six. The confusion might be that it originally was slated to have 5 on it like the other 20th century dvd's but CSA was added. Originally CSA was not included in the video list. Can't imagine that they actually pressed it twice.

I got mine and one for a friend at Best Buy today and it has six. However, I had called Walmart and the guy read from the back and said there were only five.
Also, someone on another site posted they had the video and said it had five videos.

Wherein lies the truth? Apparently there were some shipped with only five? The ones getting in the stores now (Best Buy had only stocked it this morning where I was) all have six.

I had never seen this version of Boat on the River and I really loved it, even lip synched! LOL! Tommy's sparkly shirt matches Dennis' sparkly accordion.
I have always liked that really early version of CSA with the guys in their 70's look, so I sure was happy that one was on there.

It is a nice collection of Classic Styx for not very much money. You cannot do better than that.

Now bring on the CITA DVD!!!

I finally received mine from Best Buy a few days ago. Ohhhhhhhh, I REALLY miss the Styx that I grew up with!!! It was SO nice to watch these videos :lol: I wish there were more videos on there, it seems so short.

Gary, I'll have to look at my old TMTOMH video to see if there's a difference. I remember what you're talking about in the original video :)

Awwww Bugsy, I CAN'T wait for CITA on DVD!!!!!!

My kids loved watching the "Mr. Roboto" video. They were all dancing like little robots!! They also knew the words too, pretty scary!
:D

It IS a nice DVD and collector's item. I love all the different looks of Dennis DeYoung from 1977 thru 1982. Fun stuff.

"Boat on the River" is worth the whole DVD alone. I love the song and love how the band was working together on it. I know they were lip synching the song, but who cares.

Got the Best Buy 6-pack. For those interested there is now an Asia one and a Cinderella one (Yogi, I'm looking in your direction). :lol:

Slightly related to this thread. No Doubt also released a dvd of their videos from the last 10 years or so, 16 in total. I think this was the dvd that we were or are hoping to get from the band at some time. If you are remotely a fan of No Doubt, I highly recommend it.

It might have been confusion at first, but I called Walmart to check on one for a buddy of mine, and it had only five too like the other Walmart. So the five one does exist-at least over the phone! :lol:

Very cool how they hid the Haven't We Been Here Before video... I almost couldn't find it.

maybe the confusion comes from all the other dvds in this series has 5 videos on it.
