Olivia Harrison has contributed a short history of Dark Horse records, and further notes about the Dark Horse logo.
The DVD runs in excess of 75 minutes, and is in four sections; highlights are archive footage of George talking about his solo career, seven promo videos with George discussing each track, four live songs from George?s 1991 Japanese tour with Eric Clapton( all footage previously unreleased), and excerpts from ?Shanghai Surprise? featuring George in performance.
