Other known GM-159-B opposite sides:
GM-182-A "Transportation Claims"
Julien, I often see the following on GM* disc Misc Info section:
"Since this disc was meant to be played on the MCA PR-7820, the video for each side is on the same side as the label, rather than the label for side 1 facing up meaning side 1 is on the reverse. The PR-7820 has a pickup that reads above the disc, rather than below, which would allow for this"
This is in error. I own a PR-7820 and it reads below. This should be removed from all GM* disc entries. My theory is that GM was never sure what two sides might be placed together as we see here GM-159-B exists with at least 2 different other sides. (perhaps?)
Two things are missing from the database to assist tracking these early GM/Discovision pressings. 1) I think they deserve their own GM "collection", and 2) a designation for the "Programmed Material" as the discs are labeled for the ones that do indeed program the PR-7820. |
