What Media did you last get??

[Dude111]

I last got a record

Beach Boys Party - Mono


This is an excellent album!

[Stephen]

Ghostbusters on Laserdisc from Japan. I love the Jap artwork and Obi Strip.

Also Twister, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Jurassic Park and Con Air on Laserdisc.

[Dude111]

Wow OK a laserdisc

I got an 8 track on friday: Moody blues caught live +5 (I also have the records)

[Stephen]

Yes, an analogue format so you'll appreciate it. Been collecting laserdiscs for 20 years.

Don't buy them often but when I do I buy a few together, and usually only films I love. The last new release was in 2000.

[Dude111]

Wow they released stuff in 2000 Stevie??

Whats awesome..... I dont think any VIDEOdiscs were put out after July 1986 or somewhere near there....... (I think The Jewel of the Nile was the last one pressed to videodisc)

Videodiscs and laserdiscs are neat... They are basically a record being played!!

[Stephen]

Yeah videodiscs were big records read by a needle. Laserdisc looks like a massive CD and read by a laser though it is still analogue. First title came out in 1978 with the last one in 2000.

I think the oldest release i have is from about 1982 and most recent was 1998

[Dude111]

Dirty Harry 4K + Blu Ray steelbook.

[Dude111]

Dirty Harry thats a good movie!!

I was lucky to get it on the very first 1979 VHS release....... (I wanna experience how it was when it first came out)

Do you like it Stevie? -- How many Dirty Harry Movies do ya have buddy??

I have

1971 Dirty Harry - 1979 WCI Home Video (Actually this came early enough to still say "Warner Communications" at the start of the tape (It was changed to "WCI HOME VIDEO" in 1979)

1973 Magnum Force - 1980 WCI HOME VIDEO (Just before the change to "Warner Home Video")

1983 Sudden Impact - Warner Home Video

Anyway I last got all this.........

1) Casssette: Scorpions - Crazy World (This was the last album with the original members I read)

2) VHS: The Manhattan Project - 1986

3) Cassette: U2 Live - Under a blood red sky

Its interesting some of the songs on the tape are not from the denver concert but other dates on thier tour that summer...... Not sure why but all the songs are good.... (I also have the concert on VHS)

[Stephen]

I have all 5 on DVD, but Dirty Harry is the first 4K release I've bought. It's a fantastic remaster and looks pristine, reviewrs are saying its one of the best looking in recent years. There is no chance the VHS looks how it did when it was released. The tape will be worn and faded after all these years.

The new 4K transfer is taken from a scan of the original 35mm film and cleaned up and colour corrected, won't get any better than that. Same for the new sound mixes.
