Your research is correct. The movie is the only place that you will find that recording. (The song was not written by Lightfoot, by the way, but by Les Pouliot. Lightfoot recorded several of his songs back in the very early days at Chateau). The only way you will get a copy to listen to on tape or CD-R is to make the copy yourself (or get a copy from someone who has done so). If you have a friend with a receiver and cassette deck on their home stereo system, just connect a VCR's audio output to one of their receiver's inputs. Many receivers have an AUX port on the front so it's very easy to connect it.
Since you actually have the videotape (which is out of print), you are way ahead of the game. Many people have found someone with a copy but after a few generations it sounds pretty bad. You can make a nice one!
