Smile Wins Prize For Best Music DVD 

Smile, a documentary about the tortured history of the unreleased Beach Boys album that Brian Wilson finally released last year, took home the top award at Home Media Retailing Magazine's 2nd annual Music DVD Awards. The judges cited the DVDs audio, video and technical elements as well as Wilson's candor about an album that makes Axl Rose's release of Chinese Democracy seem speedy. Rhino Entertainment released the documentary as well as three other award winning DVDs.

Other awards went to:

Best Compilation: Barbra Streisand: The Television Specials, Rhino Entertainment

Best DualDisc: Talking Heads: Brick, Rhino Entertainment

Best Music Documentary: Bob Dylan: No Direction Home, Paramount Pictures

Best New Concert: Green Day: Bullet In A Bible, Reprise Records

Best TV Concert: Paul McCartney in Red Square, A&E Home Video

Best Vintage Concert: Cream: Farewell Concert, Image Entertainment

Best Special Features/Bonus Materials: The Who: Tommy and Quadrophenia Live, Rhino Entertainment
