I guess the 06 DVD of Star Wars is closer to it's original form than I thought...
The sound mix on the 2006 DVD is the 1993 remix from the Definitive Collection laserdisc release. It is based on the 70mm 6-track mix, although there are several additions.

Thanks for sharing that link. From the looks of it, all the differences are pretty minor, and it seems to me that the 06 DVD of Star Wars is pretty faithful to the original print that premiered in 1977. That said, if there was a way to watch the original print of Star Wars exactly as it was shown in it's premier, I'd be the first in line to watch it.
BTW, does anyone have the recording of the original print from the premier of The Empire Strikes Back?
