DVD Reviews of Impossible to Forget: The Story of the '67 Boston Red Sox
DVD Review: THE MAN WE CALL YAZ
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one terrific DVD.
If you are a baby boomer from the New England area, or you are just BoSox-curious, you will love this 2-DVD set.
Disc 01 features a tremendous 40th anniversary recap of the 1967 season, which appeared last year on the New England Sports Network (NESN).
Bonus material on Disc 01 features the original "Impossible Dream" show that appeared (in B&W) on Boston's WHDH-TV, after the 1967 season had finished. Also included are three segments from the 1967 World Series highlight film, specifically the three wins posted by the Sox.
Arguably, Disc 02 is even more interesting than Disc 01.
It's a near-complete copy, of the local broadcast, of the next to last game of the 1967 regular season. The Red Sox hosted the Minnesota Twins in Fenway, needing a win to stay in the race. The makers of the DVD claim the copy of this game represents the oldest complete-game broadcast available, of any baseball game, that had been telecast in color. Jose Santiago started for the Red Sox, while Jim Kaat pitched for the Twins. Early in the contest, Kaat exited the game with an injury, giving way to Jim Perry, brother of Hall-of-Famer Gaylord Perry. The Sox came from behind, hung on, and won, behind homers by Carl Yastrzemski and George Scott. Boston went on to take the final game of the season the next day, clinching the flag, behind a complete game effort by Jim Lonborg.
Just plain great stuff ... get it.
DVD Review: Impossible to Forget
Summary: 5 Stars
Got on time. Excellent service. As a baseball fan I enjoyed the dvd. The 1967 world series was my first baseball memory. Ireally enjoyed seeing the old baseball action and interviews with the red sox players. I would recommend to any baseball fan.DVD Review: Impossible to Ignore
Summary: 5 Stars
I was only a high school freshman in Massachusetts when the Rod Sox participated in the '67 Series, and nothing has ever matched the feeling we shared when we rooted the Red Sox on to a world series victory. This 2-disc set is absolutely the most complete and accurate video document of the 1967 season in all of its glory.DVD Review: Gave me goose bumps.
Summary: 5 Stars
The Impossible to Forget DVD has scenes that brought back many memories. I was a boy of 12 on Oct 5, 40years ago at Fenway Park for Game #2 of the World Series. The clear pictures of Yaz's home runs are wonderful. I called my Dad in Mass. to thank him and talk about what we could remember from 1967.
Many Thanks
DVD Review: An amazing recollection of a magical year!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was a 11 year old Little Leaguer in 1967, being drawn further into the emerging Red Sox Nation through my pocket transistor radio. Game-by-game, win-by-win the Red Sox players of that year made a huge impression on my brothers and I, just as The Beatles had been doing with their music. We have records, books and movies to remember The Beatles and now we have the Impossible to Forget DVD to remember the 1967 Red Sox. When I purchased my copy and sat down to watch it for the first time, I was filled with great memories of the Summer of '67, that ARE impossible to forget. Then I discovered the second DVD in the package- the September 30, 1967 television broadcast of the game against the Minnesota Twins . A game that had to be won by the Red Sox to stay alive in the American League Pennant race. A game that I did not watch on TV or listen to on my transistor radio but watched at Fenway Park with my father and two of my brothers. I couldn't believe what I was holding in my hands - a DVD containing vivid images of that Saturday afternoon game in late September so long ago. That game was my first ever visit to Fenway to witness my transistor radio heros in person. As I watched the full-color video, I couldn't help but smile and remember how that game cemented my citizenship in Red Sox Nation for life.
If you're an aging Red Sox fan with memories of the 1967 Red Sox season, you can't afford to miss this gem of a DVD. It's the Sgt. Pepper of Red Sox Nation!
