	What about Rick Wakeman's album Journey_to_the_Center_
of_the_Earth?  It came out in approximately 1974.  Narration allows
the music to follow the book pretty closely.  It was a rather big
production at the time with synthesizers, orchestra and chorus.

	Unhappily, it is not as well done as War_of_the_Worlds (Yes,
I've heard that one too).  At one point it sounds as though the
orchestra moved to the next room.  Still a rather enjoyable listen, 
though.

	Has anyone else used the SFbook-to-album format?
