The Middle-Earth Album
http://dbpedia.org/resource/The_Middle-Earth_Album an entity of type: Thing
The Middle Earth Album is het zesde studioalbum van de Amerikaanse muziekgroep Glass Hammer. Het is een buitenbeentje in de discografie van de band en was een stijlbreuk met de albums daarvoor. Glass Hammer speelde en speelt progressieve rock met een religieus tintje. Echter dit album bevat slechts voor de helft de karakteristieke Glass Hammer-muziek. Het album is losjes gebaseerd op de schepsels Midden-aarde van Tolkien. Het eerste deel is daarbij dan nog zogenaamd opgenomen in de "The Prancing Pony" en klinkt als een imitatie van Britse kroegfolk. De tweede helft van het album gaat meer de richting op van de muziek van Mike Oldfield en is dan ook een combinatie van progressieve rock met folk.

The Middle-Earth Album is the fifth studio album by American progressive rock band Glass Hammer, released on June 15, 2001. It is the band's second album based on J.R.R. Tolkien's novel The Lord of the Rings, after their 1993 debut album Journey of the Dunadan, and their second release not to be a concept album, after 1998's On to Evermore. It is the first album to feature singer Susie Bogdanowicz after she joined as band member, and as such the first album to feature the band's longest and steadiest line-up, which would last until their tenth studio album, 2007's Culture of Ascent.

The Middle-Earth Album is the fifth studio album by American progressive rock band Glass Hammer, released on June 15, 2001. It is the band's second album based on J.R.R. Tolkien's novel The Lord of the Rings, after their 1993 debut album Journey of the Dunadan, and their second release not to be a concept album, after 1998's On to Evermore. It is the first album to feature singer Susie Bogdanowicz after she joined as band member, and as such the first album to feature the band's longest and steadiest line-up, which would last until their tenth studio album, 2007's Culture of Ascent. The Middle-Earth Album was jokingly marketed as a live album recorded during a performance at The Prancing Pony, a fictional inn in Bree in Lord of the Rings. The first half of the album (up to "The Man in the Wood") emulates the sound of an actual live performance at the inn, with an audience cheering and singing along as the band performs songs about the lore of Middle-earth; to capture the spirit of an actual band performing in Lord of the Rings, the album is much more folk and acoustic-oriented than other works of the band, and heavily features traditional instruments such as harpsichord, fiddle and recorder. The second half retains the same lyrical orientation, but is recorded as a more traditional studio album, and features more progressive elements and electric instruments.
