I have a 1990 VHS copy...Is there a DVD edition with main European countries subtitles(I live in Italy...)?!?Thanks!

Bootleg DVDs only I think.

Would be nice if they re-released this on DVD...and maybe added some new material to cover the many years that have since transpired!

"Gonna find my way to heaven ..."

Crossfire Hurricane DVD pretty much updated the 25 x 5....

Updated or not, I'd still love to get a look at the original someday. The few excerpts I've seen are very cool.

25x5 was never officially released on DVD.

I still have my old vhs copy too. Back then it was a treasure trove of material...no internet, only a few cable channels...no other outlet to see that stuff.

If there is money to be made, am sure it will eventually get a DVD release.

This was a great unofficial documentary that unfortunately seems to be unavailable but was more comprehensive than 25X5:

As I remember I haven't viewed it lately though 25x5 goes up do about 1989(Steel Wheels) Crossfire Hurricane kinda drops off after 1981... So I wouldn't say it updates 25 x 5, because the complaint was the director didn't go any further or deeper on CH was the complaint? right ?

I still have laser disc version of 25x5 and Gimme Shelter.
They can select Japanese subtitle, though.

Could you make a rip? For iorr's people?

Thank you in advance

never heard of that one, Bleedingman, but I'd love to see the full version. I like Zappa's soundbite too!

Looks like the (french/german) 'Let it Bleed'-Documentary by arte: [iorr.org] .

Yes, Zappa's statement in Let It Bleed is beautiful and true :E
and I agree that LIB is much closer to an update of 25x5 than Crossfire Hurricane is.
If folks ask nicely in the "hot stuff" forum I bet someone wonderful will upload 25x5 and Let It Bleed

25x5 is the most political correct view of the band, interestingly enough given by themselves....they knew they had to show a new face at that truly conservative times....they had to make that step and they did it right....otherwise they would destroy the`place the market deserved to them. They lied all the time in 25x5.

+ the treatmeant of Brian, the erased Taylor (more or less). They can't sell this PR piece again, too dated. I loved it back then though.
