Misty Mountains Song

Where it's not Ranger related. Rankin Bass, Bakshi, PJ, or independent. If it's not specifically ranger related, let's talk movies (or TV)!

If you haven't heard the track "Erebor" from the extended AUJ soundtrack, it's worth looking up, for a simple reason: bagpipes in middle-earth!
LOTRO seems to think it appropriate, as it is one of the most elite insruments a minstrel character can learn...but it's in there!
I picture the sounds that the lap version used by the Irish as a staple for Hobbits, and now that I think of it, some of the Rohiric cultural music seemed to have a bit too if I'm not mistaken!

Shore didn't actually use Uilleann pipes in any of the scores, but they could've fit quite easily.

Stay tuned (har har)...my new set arrives in September.

I do love me some well-played Uilleann pipes!

And yes, I did notice that track! I was pleasantly surprised!
