: : I recently read an article about Ben Burtt. In this article it was mentioned the Gammy Award-winning Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Movie on Record. Does anyone knows what this thing was?
: It's a double album with the soundtrack plus dialogue and sound effects. It's not actually the entire movie, but it tells the whole story. It's a great thing to listen to. There's also a Temple of Doom one.

"Raiders of the Lost Ark: The Movie on Record" was put out by Columbia Records # JS 37696 in 1981. Brisco, does yours actually have 2 records? Mine is in the standard two record album sleeve, but the whole story is on one record. The other compartment houses the wonderful full-size 16-page picture book. The whole thing is beautifully packaged and is a collectors dream.
"The Story of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" is on Buena Vista Records # 62107 in 1984. Single-album packaging, but it too has a 16-page full-colour booklet.
Found them both at record shows for around $10.
