Without further copyright rage from Bridgestone, what represents is a readthrough of one of the nine original Agapeland Character Builders books published in 1985, with a vinyl recording of the "New Baby in the House" story containing a deleted song, a cut line of dialogue, and some religious lyrics that were altered for the 1988 video adaptation (for comparison sake).

Although the 3-inch vinyl's recording quality has aged poorly after 38 years, it had to be preserved with little effort I put into restoring the audio in Adobe Audition, since that was recorded from the RCA output of my Cruiser turntable connected to the U-Control UCA202 USB audio interface.

For collectors of vintage Agapeland products (or just fans of the original Character Builders series), this was another rarity to cherish for quite some time, since most of these out-of-print books were sold out quickly. And I hope that future collectors will put some effort into uploading more of those books to keep the original series' relevance alive.
