Roads Go Ever On

This is a song with words written by J.R.R. Tolkein.  It appeared in the Hobbit and a couple of times in the Lord of the Rings.  The version sung by Glenn Yarbrough was in the 1977 Rankin Bass cartoon version of the Hobbit.  That cartoon was very dear to me, even though it is for kids and greatly truncated from the original story.  I have been learning the song but have not had time to do a recording yet. Parenting and work have been impinging on music this week.
