The Rolling Stones music video collection VHS from 1984. Would just be your standard music video compilation VHS tape, if not for the host segments connecting the videos together.

In these segments Bill Wyman, disguised as a security guard walks through London's now-defunct Museum of Mankind passing things like Easter Island statues and a crystal skull! He goes into a "discarded exhibits" room and finds Mick Jagger in a blue jumpsuit and makeup being kept in a suspended animation in a glass case! Also in the room are other "artifacts" like Tom Jones' lungs, Mama Cass's refrigerator  and Gary Glitter's chest wig.

Mick and Bill watch Stones videos and concert footage from the 70s and 80s. Also included are random interview clips including some with Australian parody interviewer, Norman Gunston (Garry McDonald) and clips from the "never offically released" rockumentary, Cocksucker Blues.

You and your father come home with a rented VHS.
Happy watching your movie, baby, it only lasts one day.
After watching it, you rewind it, you go with your father to the store and return it, with the feeling of sadness when your father gives the VHS to the manager of the video store, and before that the happy feeling of having in your possession a movie that you will remember for the rest of your life.
