I have seen that part many times.
Recently, I got an old(1981 model) Laserdisc player to work, and that is one of the discs I have.(along with "twilight zone, the movie," "Friday the 13th" and Def Leppard, "Historia".) I forwarded it to that part, just to watch it, and the "song". I think I rewound it to the song several times!!

(For those who may not know, since they never got too popular, Laserdiscs look like a DVD, but are a LOT bigger,roughly like an LP, and came much earlier(about 1978, or so).

I remember those too, for a while they were around but never really took off. I remember there was a competitor to the Laserdisc where the discs actually used a needle to play the movie, I think it was RCA's CED system IIRC. BTW, I remember the Twilight Zone movie too, the remark of that kid with those superpowers was interesting and I cracked up how they got the Tasmanian Devil in the movie, it was a hoot.
