The “home video era” began in 1977, when a company called “Magnetic Video Corporation” released the first VHS (“Video Cassettes”) for home video use. I strictly collect vintage VHS tapes that were released between 1977-1982 (with some exceptions released between 1982-1989), but mostly limited to Magnetic Video. Below is a list of retro tapes in my collection. You can refine these movies by VHS distributor, also listed below.

An exhilarating, provocative motion picture. The Rolling Stones rehearse their latest song, "Sympathy For the Devil," in a London studio.
