Sup, /m/. Normally I'd make a music thread for things like this but I won't be able to start one for quite a while due to the fact that my turntable needle broke (R.I.P. 2014-2016)...I ordered a new one but it'll still take me a while to get back to editing more rare LPs for everybody. In the meantime, have this:

There was an EP released in 1984 containing karaoke versions of the two theme songs for the 1984 Locke the Superman anime movie (Hoshi no Stranger & RAINBOW BRIDGE). Unlike the vocal versions, the karaoke versions have never been released on CD and they're quite hard to find, but I was lucky enough to snatch a copy for $3. It took me a while to remaster it due to how dirty it was, but I finally finished not too long ago.

Enjoy! I'd like to thank FFShrine user "ahqhdahtnf" for helping me fix some audio errors in the karaoke versions and for sharing the vocal versions in FLAC.

Also, I got ahold of the rare original LP soundtrack to Tomonori Kogawa's "Cool Cool Bye" OVA and Govarian BGM Collection Vol. 1. I'll be sure to rip them and post them here once I have the time to do so.
