Pretty special
Be aware it's not a story as such, but an old, scratchy, utterly delightful recording of Mr Tolkien himself performing his own poems and songs, including The Road Goes Ever On and On and a few bits of Elvish. A little bit of history.

Wonderful
The voice of the master of middle earth himself reading poems and song he had wrote. Some of which appear in The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien’s reading is nice to hear.
