One Show To Rule Them All: Music, chat and Lord Of The Rings

Mark and Stuart celebrate the 70th anniversary of J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord Of The Rings with a precious selection of related tracks and chat

Mark Radcliffe and Stuart Maconie present a feast of great music and chat for weekend breakfast

Today they celebrate the 70th anniversary of J.R.R. Tolkien's fantasy novel Lord Of The Rings being published with a precious selection of related tracks and chat.

Originally published in three parts - with the first released in 1954 - Lord Of The Rings has been influential in popular culture ever since. Mark and Stuart play a selection of Middle-earth related music and reflect on the bands and artists, such as Led Zeppelin, inspired by Tolkien's fantastical world.

Also on the show... a host of quality radio items including 'The Chain' - our world-famous list of over 8000 interconnected songs.

There’s also the chance to take part in β€˜Tea Time Theme Time’, guessing the link between three top tunes.

Plus a finely balanced blend of new and old music, setting you up for a Sunday.
