But since you're looking for the straight Dolby Stereo mix, the '85 CAV LD that someone mentioned earlier may be the best choice. I don't have that disc myself so I can't verify the sound mix.

The site is correct. The easiest way to tell is the inclusion of the 3PO tractor beam line. It's not in the Dolby Stereo mix, prior to Burtt's first video mix. Suddenly it was back in the movie, only to be out again in the 1993 re-mix.

My transfer of the Dolby Stereo mix from the pan and scan CAV disc does not have the 3PO line. The 1985 mix (heard also on the 1989 LD) does have this line. If you download the "Mysterious Mysteries" version, you'll hear the line as well.
