A couple of days back I watched a classic Disney film that I hadn't seen in years. TRON. When I was a kid and TRON first came out, I wanted to see it more than anything. I never got to see it on the big screen but I read the novel adaptation about three times, loving it more each time. I think I finally saw it when it hit HBO and loved it. When they came out with the big restoration DVD set a few years back I came very close to buying it but to this day have not. Maybe I'll go get it one day this week. Anyway, if you, like me, do not have the DVD at your fingertips, you can always listen to todays sharity,"The Story of TRON". As with The Story of Star Wars and the other Star Wars story albums, and the Raiders of The Lost Ark story record, this is the actual film put on a record. (a popular approach before the days of home video and DVD). Remember, at the time of TRON's release, home video was just becoming a tangible means for the average joe so this was still a viable way to get the enjoyment of the film in your own house. Here it is for you now. Enjoy!

Thanks for this. Wonderland records made a whole business out of these kinds of movies on record. I also have a whole series of Basil Rathbone Sherlcok Holmes movies on LP that came out in the 1960's I think that are just like this Tron LP. The entire movie soundtrack is on the LPs.
