My wife is, ahem, somewhat younger than I. The other day, In-a-gadda-da-vida was playing and she really had no clue what it was. A shame she missed that great music when it was all over the radio.
I've been (re)watching Lord of the Rings with my 10-year old. I was reminded when we started our own "Fellowship of the Ring" under darkness of night and alter states of consciousness. I still wear that "ring" to this day.
RAC - awesome books and teriffic movies. I really hope they don't ruin the Hobbit - they are already expanding it to two parts. Milking it for all its worth, I suppose.
The BluRay edition is out this spring. Now if I can just find someone to buy my old DVD copes....
I have read those. Donaldson has one of the most unique imaginations around. You might also like his Gap series. It is Science Fiction, but also very different.
I read all the J.R.R. Tolkien's books but may I suggest the "Chronicles of Amber" written by Roger Zelazny? Those books should,if they could, be put onto film.Modern computer graphics could pull this off!

Read The Ill Earth Wars trilogy by Stephen Donaldson. If you are a fan of the Trilogy Of The Ring (as am I) you will like this one too.

I will do that, thanks. Been looking for a good read. Just finished "The Road" & "Blood Meridian" by Cormac McCarthy.
Engaging books but VERY dark.
