Bakshi's Animated Lord of the Rings Theme (1978)

This is the awesome musical theme to Bakshi's animated adaptation of Lord of the Rings.




I do not own this nor anything else that has to do with this movie. I am just uploading it to share it with other fans of Lord of the Rings.

@YourProblem1

I'm in! As long as we're not marching for any particular cause other than demonstrating how awesome "The Lord Of The Rings" is.

I played this while finishing a book report on the two towers

Nice! That sounds like something I would do! How did you do on it and how did people react?

Thumbs up if the Nostalgia Critic brought you here.

a million times better than the movie soundtrack!

This theme gets me very emotional. This is the perfect theme for a Fantasy film, and I love it.

Even though I saw the Peter Jackson Trilogy before this one, this earlier film has some great perks. I found it a little more frightening then the later film and the animation is really great looking. The only issues with the older version is the lack of character development and obvious mistake with Saruman's name (they constantley call him Aruman). But still I think anyone that has an interest for fantasy films should definitley watch this one, because it still holds up as a good film :D.

@BANZITOMMY That and there, Sauron makes the big mistake anyone could ever make when the powers of the cosmos sits on his ring finger..........

You do not expose that part of yourself to enemy attack. Doing so makes you look like a moron.

Mediocre movie, but great theme.

I still rememmber how Theoden shouted " Gandaalf Gandaalf" and rohhirrim comes to aid (part 0:44 starts play)

Leonard Rosenman, the composer of this music is the same guy who composed the theme for Star Trek 4 the voyage home. You can hear the exact same motif in the "b" section of both works. Yet for me, they remain two of my very favorite movie themes of all time.

In 1997 I spent alot of money on dial up downloading this film. It Wasnt available to buy freely. I had a 2.4 kb per sec download. Now I have a 20 meg line. LOL Anyho it still makes me tremble to see and hear it on utube.

0:44 to 1:03 is my favorite part
