This is two DVDs collection of Shorin Ryu as below:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00009ZK60/qid=1101006056/sr=1-3/ref=sr_1_3/102-2166207-3001769?v=glance&s=dvd

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00011HJ8E/qid=1101006056/sr=1-2/ref=sr_1_2/102-2166207-3001769?v=glance&s=dvd

Initially, I expected that this collection consists MORE than the above DVDs as the running time was 80 minutes as per www.amazon.com. Unfortunately, the running times are 22:37 and 24:07 respectively.

The film of "Shorin Ryu Karate Matsubayashi" are rare but the images were unacceptably unclear. Simple "cardboard" was displayed to shown the performers before each performance. Unfortanately, some of them are wrong - even after 30 years (film was taken in 1965?).

Both DVDs are packaged with the "latest" pictures of Master Nagamine 10 Dan. However, only 4 minutes performance of Master Nagamine 10 Dan could be found in "Nagamine Shorin Ryu Karate". This 4 minutes consists of a sort of (Karate+dance) in Nagamine's own dojo (I think) and the open performance after the Okinawan World Karate Championships in 1997 (just before the master died).

His performance during his later part of life is no more just power but the essence of spirit (the "do" in karate-do). Fans of Shorin Ryu and Master Nagamine 10 Dan want to see more of his performance of his later years!
