Format VHS
Label B-VISION
Producer Tak Matsumoto

B'z OFFICIAL BOOTLEG is a home video by B'z, mailed exclusively to B'z PARTY fanclub members in September 1998 in commemoration of the band's 10th anniversary. It is the first of its kind, being followed by another with 2008's B'z Official Bootleg Hidden Treasure ~Typhoon No.20~. Neither video has been released in any other form.

The video contains highlights of select performances and behind the scenes moments from the band's history to that time, including material never before witnessed elsewhere. Uniquely, the video features picture-in-picture commentary from B'z throughout for most of its segments. The content ranges from otherwise unreleased LIVE-GYM footage, particularly from their early tours that have never been released in full on home video, as well as clips from their music videos along with behind-the-scenes footage in many cases. Additionally, a number of noteworthy MC sessions are highlighted and sampled from throughout the band's history. Most of the included performances are in lengthy clip form, though none are of complete length.

Released in 1998, much of the footage was being screened to the public for the first time. In the years since, some of the performances have been released in full on more widely-available packages, such as the performances of "FIREBALL" and "DEEP KISS" being staples of the 2008 DVD set B'z LIVE-GYM Hidden Pleasure ~Typhoon No.20~ that compiled hours of previously-unreleased live footage.
