Forgive me Computeraudiophiles, for I have sinned

2.  There are so few great video music recordings as to be almost inconsequential.

What your criteria for "great video music recording"?

3.  Recorded video distracts me from the music.

My experience too, but whole can be greater then sum of parts. So judged differently IMO.

Also can learn much about instruments, playing styles, &c. which is big bonus for me.

It has to be, a priori, a great musical and audio experience.  Video is an adornment.

Have some candidates (but great is relative, so check before say). But one now I think worth your time-

 

Dead Can Dance - Toward The Within - recorded live, Mayfair Theatre, Santa Monica CA 2004

Sorry, not remember specific SQ details, but never have problem with DCD album(4AD) sound. DVD of group  playing with diverse, interesting, pleasing set of instruments & voices (suspect taste for opera may help like DCD). Respectful (IMO) filming of darkened set, by song, venue well sized for DCD, audience not intrusive. Between some songs, interviews with principles uncovering thoughts & unique musical paths to the group. Hearing history of group, & seeing actual playing of music already high in my esteem, rank this video among very top for me. Entranced & sucked-in best words for my 'impressions'.

I think DCD make musical, unusual, interesting, well crafted work, Even if not classical-- make me realize no classical music videos in my house o.O
