Maybe I'm confusing the question ...
Unless, John, your speaking of an ABBA GOLD laserdisc of thier video's and not just "Gold" albums. A Lot of bands have had "gold" albums, but not actually "Gold discs"
This Laserdisc, "The Trial" (Orson Welles, 1961) was an actual GOLD laserdisc, (or, at least, Gold plated), and not silver. It's the only one I have ever ran into, Laserdisc wise.

Your right about those commentaries.
I have a number of them with commentaries ...
Macbeth (Orson Welles) Das Boot (I think) Air Force One (Directors, Commentary)
In some cases, the extras would be pretty cool, for instance :
The Thing (original 1950's version) It has, by use of the Frame By Frame mode, the complete original short story of the "The Thing" by the author!
The special edition of "Aliens" (James Cameron) The final disc has a very good "making of" documentaries which include both frame by frame reading materials, video interviews with James Cameron, complete blue-prints for the ships, for instance. I felt that it was the most exhaustive specialk edition I ran into.
