Just got not one but two Sharp/Optonica albums that originally came with the VZ2000 back in 1982. Each one is mint with its own Paper sleeve, cardboard sleeve and plastic sleeve liner. The music is actually very soothing 
Now my Sharp VZ2000 is complete!

Wow dude, that's pretty cool!
I've been meaning to pick up a picture disc, they just re-released Judas Priest's Screaming for Vengeance as a picture disc 30th anniversary.
Looks great man!

Are you sure about that, I would have thought they were promo items rather than standard.
Considering how many VZ's were sold in Au not to many of these records show up
Well if you look at how many demonstration tapes that came with Boomboxes are not around as compared to units itself. Sanyo and JVC just to name a couple
The music wasn't so great on these so maybe consumers tossed lots of them

You get yours yet man?JustCruisin said:
As for tshorba's comment, i tend to agree. I assume that these were sent out to retailers so they could demo the VZs to potential buyers.

Scotty if each VZ2000 came with an Album then each retailer would have one from the demo unit they use. Plus the albums I just received were like brand new never used so it couldn't be used by retailer. Plus no where on album does it say "for retail use only" which would have been on it. Now I do remember looking at these brand new in 82 but of course I don't remember anything about album but I bet member Madbadger (Kev) who worked for Sharp would know for sure
