I'm considering buying the music books for Howard Shore's stuff; now I need answers? Those of you who have the books: what keys are used? Is it If the keys are too bizarre (who invented E-flat, anyway?) I doubt I'll get them. I'm hoping for lots of D and G and maybe some A and E. C would be okay. You know: Pennywhistle keys, Fiddle keys...

Copies of The Road Goes Ever On have arrived: the new British black-covered version with the CD; and an old 1978 pink copy I bought on ebay...too bad it smells like cigarettes. It'll have to air out in the garage for a few months.

The only other songbook I have is The Starlit Jewel; plus a few amateur (but good) tab/chord-charts I found online. See links above. I'm wondering how the chords for the "Tolkien Ensemble" stuff iare going to be... I'll be "tabbing" those myself, it looks like (just for the chords.)
