John have you listened to the 1980s BBC Radio 4 adaptation of The Lord of the Rings? If so what do you think of it (both from a canon/adaptation point of view and whether you enjoyed it)? The music is particularly excellent imo
I have, but it has been far too long for me to offer any useful critique. As I'm in the process of reacting to and revisiting every adaptation I can, I'll try to do a video on it at some point.
@@John-Sierra That would be great to watch - interested to hear your thoughts. Strangely it is my go-to version of Lord of the Rings since I'm an extremely slow reader of fiction and love audio dramatisations. It was also how I was introduced to the story when my parents got me the cassette tapes of the 80s BBC Radio 4 adaption of LotR and 60s Radio 4 adaptation of the Hobbit for Christmas as a child. I love that Frodo in the adaptation is played by Ian Holm, who came to play Bilbo in Peter Jackson's adaptations.
Working my way through these. Thanks, such a great sound track to pottering around my house on a Saturday morning.
Thanks for listening
@@John-SierraBy the way, where can I find this music? 😁
Glad to have found this channel! Thank you for your insights.
You're very welcome, glad you're enjoying it!
Awesome video as always. Loving this series.
