The Two Towers Soundtrack
Mouse

I preordered a special edition of The Two Towers soundtrack and received it last Friday. I enjoyed listening to it over the weekend - really like the theme that Howard Shore added for the people of Rohan. And Gollum's song is very interesting.

But I have a question for anyone else that might also have purchased this edition. There is a sleeve around the CD. On one side it has "The Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers" printed. On the other side is a portion of someone's face - just the eyes and the top part of the nose. I've been debating with another ringer as to whose face those eyes belong to. The whole picture is colored a yellowish tint almost making it look like animal eyes (and decidedly unfriendly). Could it be Gollum or Grima? Or maybe Saruman? I would be interested in other opinions. Thanks!
