The Empire Strikes Back READ ALONG SOUND.


a very thoughtful friend of mine gave me a 33 RPM, read along record of The Empire Strikes Back. Thank You. the last few minutes of side two skip in a few places, so i never really found out what happened to Han and Carrie Fisher, but i decided to make the best of this defect and turn it into something neat. THANKS. ENJOY.

also, included with this download is a bonus track recorded a few days later with Ben Clancy on guitar & bass and Christian Anderson on drums.
