Default Classic Albums DVD

wanted to buy the Classic Albums BOOH DVD and saw that there are appearantly two different versions:
this one and that one.

Can anyone who owns it, tell me if there´s a difference, and if so, which is the 'better' one?

I asked Meat and he told me that one is all videos and the other is a TV show about Bat 1.

Yes they are different.

I have the red one. It is the same one that was shown on VH1.

Are you sure it doesn't mean that the one with the BOOH cover is Classic Albums plus videos? If you look at the pic of that one it's got the Classic Albums logo on the cover (which would be irrelevant if that's not what it was! ) and pics of Meat at the mixing desk on the back...

Just had a look on the UK Amazon...

The one with the grey/purple cover I have on VHS and it's the original programme that was shown on TV. I then got the DVD version with the BOOH cover and it's the same content

I can't remember off the top of my head and I'm not at home to check, but perhaps the videos mentioned are a bonus feature on the DVD with the BOOH cover - the content of the main DVD is Classic Albums from TV and the other DVD/VHS

Have looked on eBay at the two different ones. The content appears to be identical.

It is the same, I've read the backs of them, own the Classic albums DVD with on the front with a green trim. Looked at the one with bat on it, said the same things. Obviously Meat was mistaken. they both should also have a great live track of Heaven Can wait at the end, which, if you put it in audio, makes a great Live addition to any collection :)

would it be possible that the Loaf was mixing something up with Hits out of Hell?

I believe that Meat is confusing this with the Hits Out Of Hell DVD.

Both of the above DVD's have EXACTLY the same content.
