Lord of the Rings Complete Recordings

[pegkerr]

I got a gift certificate from one of my attorneys for Christmas, which I have spent on the super deluxe Complete Recording of the Fellowship of the Ring which has just been released.

It is STUPIFYINGLY GORGEOUS! Soooooo worth the money!

I gather that they will be releasing the complete recordings for the subsequent movies, too. I will absolutely be getting those, too.

That looks absolutely stunning!

I've forbiiden from buying myself anything else having to do with LotR until I've finished reading all of the extra texts I've purchased over the last two years, which means that I'll set the CDs on my 2006 Christmas list. :-)

Thanks as alsways for sharing, Peg.

Raaaa. I want to order it but I can't find my Amazon gift certificate! Raaa!

Sweet! Added to my wish list. Normally, I like to buy things in bulk. Not to save shipping (since it's free at that price anyway), but, unless I need something quickly, I can just wait until I can ship several things at once. Thanks for the heads up!

I keep looking at the complete recording and wondering if I can justify it when I already have the soundtracks. Is it really worth having both?

Well, I think so, but there is no guarantee that you are as great a fanatic as I am. I am very happy with my purchase. I adore the cut "The Passing of the Elves," which is the beautiful hymn to Elbereth that the wood elves sing on the road to the Grey Havens--Frodo and Sam saw them when they were on the road in the extended edition. I like the party music at Bilbo's birthday party. I like the longer cues; I find the booklet included to be very informative and interesting. YMMV.
