: : Hearing that file, caused me to remember a set of LP's a friend of mine had back in the late 70's. I think the records were Tolkien reading The Hobbit, but I'm not sure. Do you, or anyone else, remember any such records?

: Yes, I have a complete set. Tolkien did 3 spoken albums, one for the hobbit, one for the lord of the rings, and one for songs and poems from middle earth. His son, Christopher, also did one for the silmarillion. You can generally find them selling on ebay, as well as many on-lin vinyl stores. There is also an audio cassette collection of the same 4 albums in circulation.

: Because my turntable has been out of service for a few years, i have not been able to listen to them yet, so i can't give you a review.
