1.0 out of 5 stars Very, very poor, May 4, 2004

By 

"deanosthenes" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Music from Lord of the Rings: The Trilogy (Audio CD)

When purchasing this cd set, I expected the magnificence that is the movie soundtrack, all song with full orchestra. These cds sound as if all of the music comes utterly from a synth keyboard, which is most likely the complete truth. I wanted the real thing, and mistakenly bought a cheap imitation. If you enjoy synthesized orhcestrations, I'm sure you'll enjoy, but
this is as far from what I wanted as possible. I should have used more caution, and am going to attempt to return the cds. If you want The Lord of the Rings soundtrack, invest money in the offical soundtrack, as it was used in the movie, not this.

This isn't even worth $5.00. Everything about the packaging makes one think it is the soundtrack from the movie. Sadly it isn't.
