As much as I applaud fan efforts to preserve the pre-SE audio tracks via the laserdisc, they pail in comparison to the cassette recording my dad did while at CBS\FOX. I appreciate any and all offers to transfer the cassette we have to a digital format for later use. After talking with my dad, even though he did the recording for me (something that he could hand down) and I could do with it what I want, he made it conditional because it was meant only for me. But, we decided to purchase our own metal tape deck and plan on digitizing the track that way. I’ll figure out how to make it available after that. As far as which version it is, it’s before the SE. So, what does it matter? But, if you need a date, call it the CBS\FOX 1984 version of ESB.
I was inquiring as to how this project is coming out.
We have the cassette deck to play back the metallic cassette. However, I still need to work with him on getting it transferred to WAV or FLIC. The only reason why it stalled was because he randomly decided that he wanted us to get a dog. So, we’ve been getting her cleared by the vet and settled in. I’ll drop him a note again about getting all this together to get it done.
