The Fireside

Terrific news everyone!! The Fellowship of the Ring soundtrack is now EVEN MORE widely available!! Here are the links and formats (sorry let's assume that the vinyl set is sold out. did you get one? Either way, THIS is the one you need.). Expect The Two Towers (and possibly a 'remastered' (digital) edition of The Return of the King to come when their respective vinyl sets do [I say 'possibly' for The Return of the King because it's the newest, and therefore, already exists on some digital music / streaming services, whereas the first two hadn't previously] Anyway, here are the links no matter how you listen to music  I'm pushing this, because these are the soundtracks you SHOULD listen to, like how the extended editions are the ones you SHOULD watch. Here are the formats in which you can nab the 'definitive' Fellowship  soundtrack, no matter how you listen to music: CD (and blu-ray audio) set : https://www.amazon.com/Lord-Rings-Fellowship-...

Now this is unexpected and all-together welcomed!! The Fellowship of the Ring  soundtrack will be debuting on vinyl LP for the first time ever, rightfully so, in it's Complete Recordings! The set will be released on March 30 . It can presently be pre-ordered via Amazon right here:  https://www.amazon.com/Lord-Rings-Fellowship-Complete-Recordings/dp/B079PDFGZK/ref=sr_1_2?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1518573762&sr=1-2&keywords=lord+of+the+rings . As you can see in both the picture and the the description, it'll be 5 discs (can they be called 'discs?'). I'm greatly excited for this myself, however, I'm a tad puzzled as to why The Two Towers  or The Return of the King  aren't out as well - either in a trilogy set, or on their own if cost, packaging etc would be an issue for that much vinyl and what not. Or, possibly, The Hobbit  as well. But it's all good! The Lord of the Rings  film music is finally  coming to vinyl! I got the Complete Recordin...

With renewed interest in Tolkien due to the Hobbit films, here is a gift option for shoppers come Thanksgiving / Christmas [I will do a Christmas idea post in November or December sometime. This ideas are not for myself.]
