Info: Does Anyone Have The Old Original Theater Bootleg '77 Tape? (Released)

If someone somehow got hold of this 1983 Japanese LD and ripped the audio, that would be the ideal copy of the original stereo mix. I know Neil S. Bulk has a copy that was ripped from a time-compressed LD and then decreased in speed; however, even this has yet to surface in a project.

The 1983 CAV LD of Star Wars has the original 1977 Dolby Stereo mix and it's not time compressed. That's what I used to assemble the original mix.

The CLV LD from that time period were time compressed. I didn't use it.

The EditDroid discs use the 1985 Ben Burtt re-mix.

Idea: Working & Releasing the Audiotracks separately?

Neil, was that 1977 Dolby stereo mix digitally ripped from the LD (or was this mix never in digital form on an LD?). Do you also have the ESB & ROTJ soundtracks from this set, were they theatrical stereo mixes as well?

It was the analog CAV pan and scan LD that I recorded to CD, ripped to my computer and then assembled and normalized. I didn't bother replacing the FOX logo because I'd rather have that done when synced to picture. I only have Star Wars this way.

Classic OT covers
Time
Really nice covers!

You now need to make an alternate for Star Wars that drops "Episode IV - A New Hope" and uses the formatting from the original release version.

"It is a period of civil war.
Rebel spaceships, striking
from a hidden base, have
won their first victory
against the evil Galactic
Empire.

During the battle, rebel
spies managed to steal
secret plans to the Empire's
ultimate weapon, the
DEATH STAR, an armored
space station with enough
power to destroy an entire
planet."

The last paragraph is identical to the "Episode IV" credits. Please also note the lower case "r" in the first sentence of the second paragraph. That's intentional. Also obviously all the text should be justified to the edges. If you could do this, I'd love a high-res version. Thanks!

Star Wars: Deleted Magic (Released)
Time
Deleted Magic is right! The 2004 re-mix was used as the primary audio on this thing and the Death Star dive music is missing. This occurs 5:01 into part 20. What a disappointment! I was over my hatred of the DVDs and this just reminded me of how horrible the official DVD is. For something made to honor Star Wars, it really bothers me that this track was used for Deleted Magic.
