I own the 70th Anniversary Emerald Edition Blu-ray+DVD combo pack of
The Wizard of Oz (1939).
According to
Blah-ray, the 1989 MGM/UA LaserDisc and the 1991 MGM/UA LaserDisc, both marked ML101656, share the same mono soundtrack, which is the blogger's favorite audio of the movie.
I was wondering if someone could rip the digital/analog left channel mono audio from the 1989 or 1991 LaserDisc of the movie and sync it to the Blu-ray and UHD. I would like to use the BD-synced audio to replace the Dolby Digital 1.0 mono track on my MKV file rip of the BD. I don't want the 1988 Criterion LD audio, because that has heavy noise reduction applied to it, according to Blah-ray.
Thanks.

If I am able to get the LD track as mentioned on the blah-ray would gladly sync it to the UHD/ HD Blu-ray.

I'd go for the 1993 LD audio. I fear the truncated audio would annoy me. Right now I'm using the 1997 DVD in my remux.

I'd need to hear both LDs to know if I could tell the difference in quality. All I have access to is the DVD audio track.

you'd pick the lower quality audio just so you can hear that one word? just splice/edit that one line in the 89 recording.
True,
The 89 LD is just way to superior from the samples provided at Blah ray

I'm going to a 35mm screening in June. Hopefully it's a print struck from original film elements, rather than a film-out of a digital restoration.
Are there any mysteries re. picture or audio, e.g. color timing and missing dialog/effects, that a 35mm print can help answer? I can try looking out for those.

I think I actually spurred him to finally make the Wizard of Oz blog post after I sent him a recording and he realized the 91 LD sounded better than the 97 DVD. Not sure where Moshrom got his 89 recording from, but I supplied the 89 VHS and 91 LDs. I never got around to syncing it though but I'll send it your way.
I'll get working on it asap, Thanks yarp
