Lord of the Rings Motion Picture Trilogy

When it comes to epic cinematic adventures, they don’t come much more memorable than Peter Jackson’s LORD OF THE RINGS, so when the time came to secure a composer to pen the score, Jackson made sure to find someone who was capable of delivering an appropriately epic sound. As music and film history reveal, he found that someone in Howard Shore, and now you can pick up a limited-edition set filled with the original soundtracks to all three LORD OF THE RINGS films on vinyl.

LORD OF THE RINGS: THE MOTION PICTURE TRILOGY SOUNDTRACK is a 6-LP set, with each of the LPs pressed on 180-gram vinyl, and the whole affair comes housed in a collector’s box with a leather-style spine. It sounds good, it looks good… What more could you ask for?

Here’s the full track listing of the set, which is in stores now:
