Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975)

Mono - 

1991 Columbia Hi-Fi VHS: This sounds very good, though the tape transfer I have isn't the best (it has what seems like an additive cloud of hiss between ~9-15 kHz). 

I also have a later '90s Hi-Fi tape that uses a stereo remix.

1993 Criterion LaserDisc [CC1311L]: Essentially the same as the DVDs and blu-rays - probably the origin of those. Strong high-frequency noise reduction. It has an additional 32-second scene cut into the middle of the film, which sounds better here than in any later release. 

1999 R1 Columbia TriStar DVD: Like the Criterion LaserDisc, but it does not have the additional scene. 

2006 R1 Sony Deluxe Edition DVD: Identical to the 1999 DVD but with the additional scene spliced in, which sounds worse than on the Criterion LaserDisc but better than on the blu-rays.

2012 Sony Blu-ray: Identical to the DE DVD but with even more NR on the extra scene and the end music has been spliced in from a source that's of higher quality than the rest of the film.

2015 Sony 40th Anniversary Blu-ray: A lossless version of the 2012 blu-ray.

2025 Sony UHD Blu-ray: Identical to the 2015 blu-ray.

I'd like to hear the 1994 Columbia LaserDisc.
