(Magical) Mystery DVD

Several people have asked about the DVD referred to several times in Steve Matteo's Beatles Let It Be book - does it exist, where to obtain it, is Steve a liar, and so on. To clear up any confusion, here are Steve's comments on the matter:

When I finished the book, I had interviewed several people who participated in the making of the Let It Be DVD. It was supposed to come out in 2004 and then 2005. It hasn't come out in 2005 because there is so much about Lennon's 65th birthday and the 25th anniversary of his death. Also, Paul's new album and tour is happening. On top of all this, there is the DVD of The Concert for Bangladesh just coming out. Further still, there is also the issue of the trial, which involves the stolen tape reels of the film sound from Let It Be. The DVD could still come out this year, but my guess is 2006 for sure...
