Oh my gosh. 35 years later I still have so much of this memorized. This took me back!

Wow. Flashbacks. I remember being 8 years old and listening to this on tape over and over in my room then attempting to draw the pictures from the book. Thanks for posting this

OMFG...you can find anything on RU-vid! I looked this up on a whim because I still know every word by heart and even now it sometimes gets stuck in my head like a song. I played that cassette till it disintegrated but I still have the book!

Do not underestimate just how important these cassettes were when you were a sky kid who didn't even have VCR capabilities!! But my Sith Lord - the b-movie vocals haven't aged well!! Thanks for finding this!

I was 4 years old and THIS was the first book I learned how to read. I read it so many times, I memorized it. Eventually, my mother purchased a tape recorder and I would record myself reading it, making the sound effects and character voices just like the audio. Thank you sooooo much for posting this!!

It's so funny how we used to entertain ourselves as kids. My brother and I made full-blown Star Wars home movies using my dad's VHS recorder. We used cassette tapes to record the Star Wars soundtrack off of vinyl records and we'd have it set up on a boombox to provide music in the background of our scenes, pausing it at the exact moment we stopped a scene. For space scenes, we'd set up the VHS recorder right in front of our computer screen and we'd play the X-Wing or Tie Fighter game. For cockpit scenes, we'd put on our bicycle helmets and we had a little setup under our computer desk to make it look like an X-Wing cockpit. My parents still have the videos, pretty awesome.

@Jaymindrew1990 7 лет назад

I was three when the first Star Wars movie came out. And I was six when the Empire strikes back came out. This read along book may not be the movie, but for some reason listening to this brings back a tremendous wave of nostalgia from being a kid that I cannot explain. I love these things! Even my young son, who is now the same age I was when the Empire strikes back came out loves it too. Thank you so much for posting this!

Same here. Saw Jedi in '83, but didn't get to see New Hope or Empire until 1985, on video cassette. These read-along books were all I had to bridge the gap.

What a time-machine RU-vid is! I heard this in 1981 and still have the single and booklet. It brings back so much memories and I am so happy and grateful, that I was able to experience this time. Strange that the sounds of the ships and the sounds in general come across much more intensively than on screen. I found that back then. The ear also "sees" somehow :-)

I remember the special class I was sent to as a kid as I could not read well growing up after I lived over seas for a few months and now jumped between two languages fluently and had to be retaught. I remember the smell of the mentholated spirits as each kid who grabbed headphones needed to clean them before use and this was always my choice along with Raiders of the Lost Ark.

@MasterJediDude Год назад

I had this in 1980 and I was 10 years old. It was the closest thing we had to watching the movie again. The voice actors weren’t the best, but it didn’t matter that much to me. My imagination took care of the rest. Good times!

@JackOSUrulz Год назад

It’s funny, I don’t remember being so critical of the voice actors at the time….I think at our young ages then, we just “filled in the gaps” after we had seen the movie and since we weren’t hearing those voices regularly (we didn’t have DVDs, or even Betamax tapes of the movie then lol), we didn’t have much of a way to compare. Unless you watched the Holiday Special! LOL. It was truly the only way to keep enjoying the movie and story while playing with the toys on a rainy afternoon.

@MasterJediDude Год назад

@@JackOSUrulz I had the excellent version of “Star Wars” on cassette tape and it ran about an hour. It was professionally made, using the actual soundtrack and voices. The narration was solid, so this was the quality that I judged all others by. But you’re right - it’s about all we had before Beta/VHS. It was a magical time to be alive.

"No. No! IT'S NOT TRUE!!! I'LL NEVER JOIN YOU!!!" In the actual film version, Luke says this: "No. No. It's not true! That's impossible!" Vader's response: "Search your feelings, Luke! You *KNOW* it to be true!" Luke: "NOOOOOO!!!! NOOO!!!"

BJ Ward did the force for Leia on this as well as most of the other SW read-alongs. She's famous for doing the voice of Scarlett on the original GI Joe cartoon as well as a bunch of voices for Disney at their theme parks in the US.

@anniefinch6843 2 года назад

Each of these Star wars read alongs are neat. This 1 came out in my birth year and in case the narrator should know that the same voice of Yoda in this movie and the third one sounds like Grover from Sesame Street.

Not surprising since the voice of both of them was Frank Oz.

ESB.....wow it just sooooo "upped" everything despite being darker ....JOhn Williams score is just fantastic ..three different themes that could actually be THE theme "The Imperial March" , "Han And The Princess" and "Yoda's Theme" they pretty much sum up the movie theme wise musically. imo only Williams 's Superman The Movie score rivals Williams ESB score with use of different musical theme that themselves have become iconic cues
