Anthology Companion on Apocalypse Sound collects together very Beatles promo film and its variation on one convenient package. The selection, sequencing and video quality are the same as Chronology 1 & 2(Picture Perfect PPDVD 001/002) and in similar quality.

Many of the early promos are taped from television appearances. By 1965 the Beatles limited their exposure on live television and began to focus upon producing promo videos to be shown on the different programs. Many of the mid sixties promos have alternate versions so because the band wanted to produce unique versions for the different outlets.
