Hello there!

I guess this happens to most collectors. When I first started taping Beatles stuff from TV years ago, I had no idea I'd build such a big collection, with all kinds of material. When I realized things were getting really too serious, it was too late, and I already had lots and lots of undocumented VHS tapes spread all over the house. At a certain point, I totally lost track of what I'd got.

For years I've been dreaming of organizing this collection, anotating all broadcast dates, quality of the tapes, segments lenghts, etc. But of course that not only takes a lot of time, which I don't have, but it's also a very misleading work, because once you put a tape on, you get so involved with the show that you forget about everything. Each tape brings a lot of new memories and new interests, and you remind of an old recording you have on some CD, and when you realize it, your video collection is still that enoyable confusion.

Still, little by little I came to a minimun documentation of what I have. Of course there's still a few thigns I don't know where to find (such as Simposon episodies with Beatles appearances. I KNOW I have them all, but on which tape??), and track list and timing for individual tapes are far from being complete. But at least all the tapes are labeled and in their own place in the shelves, so I can find them when I want.

Cataloguing individual programs, shows or clips in on the plans - in some case, even in the works , but for now I really thought the best would be to list what's on each tape. Over 90 percent of the collection is only Beatles material, but there's a few other generally Beatles related artists, such as Elvis, Eric Clapton, Stones or Bob Dylan, so I thought there would be no problem to let them here.

Also, since my DVD collection is growing very quickly, I thought I'd better put a separate page for the DVDs alone. Check it out. A Bootleg DVDs section is also online. It's really interesting, since it cointains most of the more recent videos, and new oddities from Brazil and other countries as well. Also, there's a few VCDs and mp3 discs , which are worth looking at.

If you're interested in trading with me but are outside Brazil, I'm happy to annouce that since the advent of DVD recording technology, for the first time in my Beatles collecting history I can make NTSC copies out of the PAL-M videos I have on my collection. NOw there's virtually no limits to which videos I can copy for trading purposes. Actually there's still the copy-protected items, but in time we'll work on that, right?

So if you're looking for a good video trade or simply good information, take your time and carefully examine the list bellow, Among a lot of commonly avaiable but very interesting videos, I'm sure you'll be surprised to find several videos you thought were just a myth.
