I suspect that all the soundtrack LPs will be available on Spotify. I've
never thought about playing LPs on a TV, but each to their own....
I did not want only he soundtrack I was hoping to get the complete film

I think we were confused by "Musical films on LP". Obviously LPs can only
hold sound, not video, so we assumed you wanted modern-formats copies of the
LPs, (CD, or MP3 via online, HDD or pen drive) so you could play the sound
through your TV. Now you mention "complete film", it becomes clear: you want
the film (sound and pictures) for which you currently have sound-only on LP.
As a matter of interest, are the LPs made using the original soundtrack (and
therefore cast) or are they cover versions of the songs made by other
artists which was a common practice with musical soundtrack LPs.

Try Youtube or Netflix, or maybe a web vendor such as Network who may sell
it on DVD. The medium that you buy it on will depend on what player
equipment (DVD, MPEG-2/H264, Netflix etc) you already have.

Maybe I'm a Luddite but I always like to own a physical copy (LP or CD for
music, DVD for TV/film), even if I port that onto a computer for easier
playing on my PC (eg via iTunes or VLC) or TV (eg via Plex on our Roku box).
