This is the deal. The PBS piece (if it's the same thing I saw) uses
excerpts 
from the Max R&B video, from the box set. PBS however, intersperses
these 
with interviews of Kieth Richards, Bryan Adams and some fuzzy guy from
the 
Spin Doctors. In that it illustrates the influences of the 'oo on other 
bands, it has some value. Much of the commentary is banal and frankly
un-
interesting. Even Kieth Richards, while he is a colorful person, can't 
complete a thought without doing some spastic gesture, all the while
toting a 
cigarette. It's pretty pathetic. Bryan Adams is irrelevant. 
The dude from the Spin Doctors is honest and congenial,  but all in all
I 
could have done without much of it. The most redeeming aspect of the
whole 
enterprise was actually turning on the tube and seeing performances of
our 
favorite band.
