About this album
Lord Of The Rings Vol 3 shows John Sangster turning Tolkien into inventive Australian jazz, balancing melodic wit with a restless, exploratory spirit. Issued in 1977, the album forms part of Sangster’s ambitious jazz reimagining of The Lord of the Rings, where fantasy scenes and characters become vehicles for improvisation, colour and shifting ensemble textures. With titles such as “The Balrog”, “Rivendell Rort” and “The Uruk-Hai”, the record suggests both narrative and humour, but its lasting appeal lies in how confidently it fuses programme music with contemporary jazz. It stands as one of Sangster’s most distinctive works.
