Anybody got Belbucus' 70mm recording? It was posted on a.b.sw way back in 2006, but I don't think any newsreaders have retention that far back, and it doesn't show up on Binsearch (which I think only returns results back to about 1100 days or thereabouts).

Also, does anybody else notice that in the L.Mayer recording, there seems to be a sound effect for that one explosion flash in the Star Destroyer flyover that didn't really have a prominent sound effect before the '93 mix (when they added that newer sound effect)? You can hear it at about 02:19, it comes out on the recording as a dulled "thump." When you synch the audio up with the flyover visual, that sound seems to match up with that flash. Not sure if it's some kind of glitch in the recording, or background noise, or if it's an actual sound effect in the 70mm mix. Anybody else hear it?

UPDATE: Listening to it again, I now think it's just the way the microphone picked up the percussion in the music, it occurs at one of the "DA DA DA DAAAA DAAA  DAAA" stabs in the score. Thoughts?
