The Obscure Video Remastering Project

PostPosted: Fri Nov 08, 2013 10:47 am

I'm looking for quality audio files in lossless format, FLAC, WAV(LPCM)or better to use in the remastering of high quality videos that I have collected over the years.
In return for collaborating on this project any partner shall receive that final finished project contributed on. All I ask is that we keep the material private. In other words I will not give out your work, nor should you mine.
Why am I doing this? Because I am tired of hunting down all the materials necessary, in this case the audio files, for this never ending project that has been ongoing forever it seems. Although this is an option (vinyl transfers/hunting down CD's), I am going to give the internet it's due and see if this can work out and meanwhile make some interesting acquaintances.

Again, quality is necessary. I will be adding tracks as I go, some research will be taken so as to be clear about what track is needed. Any questions, just ask, send message thru my profile email.
Thanks [8D]

Hi Frank, no

Did a LD exist that you know of?
Can't find them in the LDDB database, which just means that if a laserdisc did exist, it was very rare, or non commercially released. Even the obscure band Fiat Lux laserdisc is listed in the database. Even more amazing was that one was made.
Sorry I wasn't of help,

P.S. If you tell me that one did in fact exist there is a good chance I could find it.

Thanks anyway. :)

According to Phil Thornton there was one made of when they were in Japan but he doesn't have this. It wouldn't surprise me if it doesn't exist but then it wouldn't surprise me if it was made but only in very limited quantities as they didn't exactly have the greatest of presence at the time.

I have made inquiries to folks in the know about music laserdiscs and none have replied with any knowledge about this LD ever existing, which was quite common for LD. I would suspect what happened is that in Japan during this time, often they would film all live events performed in Japan with the thinking of making a LD. There are many LD's of live performance in Japan because Japan had the most LD users in the world.
But, even though the live concert was shot, with the intent of making an LD, I suspect it never made it to Laserdisc, thus the lacking of any physical LD today.
