	DPRP - Forgotten Sons: Bo Hansson
		Born in Stockholm in 1946, Bo Hansson's musical career took off in the late sixties when he was part of the duo Hansson & Karlsson who released three albums and managed to make a name for themselves on the musical circuit, both at home and in Europe.
		Hansson's third album, which according to many music aficionados was his strongest in musical terms, was released in 1973 as Mellnväsen on the Silence Records label (SRS 4625).
		With this album Hansson confirmed his maturity as a musical composer, managing to slowly build upon his body of works without losing that feeling of a fairy-tale atmosphere, his trademark sound which was essentially laid down on his debut album.

		Bo borrowed an apartment from a friend who was abroad for some time and when he came back after three months he found himself without a home.
		Bo in one room with his instruments, Anders in another with his machines and one room for the drums that Rune Carlsson came and played from time to time.
		Bo himself could not find the right motivation to get out on the road again and he has also on several occasions said that he is not very good at making decisions and organizing things.

		This was also the first Bo Hansson album, the Swedish legend known to be one of the earliest to place "space music".
		Bo himself was in the midst of a very creative period, new melodies were constantly popping up in his head, so when Lord of the Rings finally got released in other countries there were already three more tracks added compared to the first Swedish issue.
		"Hansson's third album, which according to many music aficionados was his strongest in musical terms, was released in 1973 as Mellnväsen on the Silence Records label; later issued with the English title Attic Thoughts.

	Bo Hansson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bo Hansson was born on 10 April 1943 in Gothenburg, Sweden, and is a musician best known for his four instrumental albums released in the 1970s.
		In 1966, Hansson saw American jazz organist 'Brother' Jack McDuff perform at Stockholm's Gyllene Cirkeln Club, and was so captivated by the performance that he decided to leave The Merrymen to expand his musical horizons.
		Hansson retreated to a remote cottage on an island off Stockholm where he, drummer Rune Carlsson and engineer Anders Lind, who had worked previously with Hansson/Karlsson, spent winter 1969 recording what was to become Hansson's debut solo album on a borrowed 4 track recorder.

	LP Reviews H
		Bo Hansson's famous debut-album inspired by Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings" made him the most successful progressive rock artist from Sweden and Scandinavia as it sold to gold status in both the UK and Australia.
		Hansson's third album was for me the culmination of all the promises of the two first albums.
		Hansson took all the elements of his signature sound a step further and melted them into far more complex, involving and longer compositions than on the two first albums, with a much better, tighter and more professional sound.

		Bo Hansson, a multi-instrumentalist from Goteborg (Sweden), who had already released three albums with the duo Hansson & Karlsson, composed Sagan Om Ringen (1970), reissued as Lord Of The Rings (Buddah, 1972), an original take on psychedelic, gothic, progressive and electronic rock.
		The resulting sound of the 12 impressionistic vignettes was unique, predating both Brian Eno's electro-pop and new age music, mixing folk, classical, jazz and pop one year before Mike Oldfield.
		Bo Hansson è un organista svedese che per anni fu noto soltanto come la metà del duo Hansson and Karlsson.

		Hansson and Karlsson (link goes to page in Swedish) is probably the best band ever to come out of Sweden in the 1960s.
		What we really want to hear is of course a giant live cd box of the boys jamming on their own as well as with the likes of Frank Zappa, Cream, Jefferson Airplane and Jimi Hendrix (who recorded their song 'Taxfree').
		Bo Hansson went on to record a highly successful interpretation of Lord of the Rings and Janne Karlsson became an actor and TV-show host.

		One of the early concept albums, Bo's inspiration was Tolkein's masterpiece and in my opinion he was tremendously successful in exploring the mood and mysticism, both dark and light, in Tolkein's trilogy.
		Bo's moog work is instrumental in creating this atmosphere and its warm sounds are utilized to the fullest extent throughout this album.
		Hansson is especially drawn to the dark, mysterious aspects of the trilogy.

	Ground and Sky review - Bo Hansson - Lord of the Rings
		Anyway, on this album Hansson and his band manage to create some fairly exotic sounding music with the standard bass, drums and guitar augmented by congas, sax, flute and tons of organ and moog.
		I have a feeling that the Bo Hansson disc will be sticking around much longer.
		Bo Hansson is a multi-instrumentalist (keyboards, guitar, moog, bass), and this release from 1970 contains symphonic space rock that is based on J.R.R. Tolkien's novels.

		To begin with I can say right from the start that these two albums, together with Bo Hansson's third album "Mellanväsen (Attic Thoughts)" (released in 1975), is three of my absolute favourite albums.
		The music is all-instrumental with lots of Moog, and it's Bo Hansson's musical interpretations of J.R.R. Tolkien's book trilogy "The Lord of the Rings".
		Bo Hansson's "Sagan on Ringen" has been really successful throughout the world and he has:

		Hansson and Karlsson (formed in 1966) had been a truly unique phenomenon in Sweden in the late '60's, with music built greatly on improvisation and who employed a heavy organ sound before it was common in progressive rock.
		When the '60s ended, and as Hansson and Karlsson were getting big in progressive circles in Europe, their career came to a halt after conflicts between the two and their manager.
		Now, Hansson's big commercial and international breakthrough, however, did not come through any of the four albums he released with jazz-drummer Janne "Loffe" Karlsson (later to become a second-rate actor/comedian), but with this album.

		The best of Bo Hansson's albums, and one of the few progressive rock instrumental recordings that still holds up on repeated listening.
		Hansson's keyboard playing is quite unlike the work of such rivals as Keith Emerson or Rick Wakeman, less heavy and "gothic" and more oriented toward jazz.
		His guitar work as is flashy and aggressive as his keyboards ("The Black Riders/Flight to the Ford" is a great showcase for both), and the backing by sax, flute, and drums creates an overall rich sonic palette.

		Hansson’s “Music Inspired by Watership Down” has not only long been out of print, but to my knowledge it was never made available on CD (I had a copy of it on vinyl).
		The reissue of Music Inspired by Watership Down not only gets a nice write up on Bo in the liner notes (which on the upside is quite long, but on the downside focuses far too much on his Lord of the Rings album) it also receives a bonus track, the fabled Migration Suite.
		When I listen to it I not only feel like I live on Venus’s Moon, but the band who plays my daily Venusian BBQ is the Bo Hansson Elektric Light Orchestra with their singer, the starry elfin maid Kate.

		Their name translates to "trees, grass & stones." A rock group led by Bo Anders Persson (after his works with Pärson Sound, Harvester, International Harvester), this was their first of three albums, a definitely more "rockist" continuation of the post-minimalist experiments of the earlier groups, but still with that undefinable Swedish underground feeling.
		Zamla lost their original drummer, Hans Bruniusson, and was replaced by Vilgot Hansson, with the band duly noting in the liner notes "a period of transition," with the music not as "optimistic and happy" as on previous releases.
		International Harvester were the second incarnation of Bo Anders Persson's group, after Pärson Sound (whose early sound experimentation was finally documented in 2001 by Subliminal Sounds).

	Hansson, Bo
		Yet Sewdish keyboardist Bo Hansson?s interpretation is so restrained and underwhelming, he might as well have been composing the score to an episode of Where the Heart is. Despite the potential drama of songs such as Lothlorian and Shadowfax.
		Hansson witters away on his moog, evoking none of the atmosphere of the books whatoever.
		There is a Dutch composer, who wrote something for a brass-orchestra which is quite good, but I don't feel underwelmed by Bo Hanssons take on the book.

		Bo Hansson’s debut solo album helped put Sweden on the map big time back in 1969.
		The concept of Bo and Swedish engineer wizard Anders Lind (of Silence Records in Sweden), Lord paired Hansson’s unique keyboards and compositional skill—as well as his effective electric guitar passages—with drums by Rune Carlsson.
		Hansson’s remaining three fantastic instrumental solo albums—he hasn’t made a new instrumental album since the late ‘70s—featured the gifted electric guitarist Kenny Håkhansson and took the Hansson instrumental sound to even greater heights.

		And if you like it I would suggest you check out Bo Hanssons earlier band Hansson and Karlsson that play a bit jazzier music or another band with a somewhat similar sound(they actually use the exact same electric organ Bo used on the LoTR album) Sagor and swing that are quite minimalistic and more melodic.

		It turns out that Bo Hansson is not a forgotten name in music at all.
		Plenty of people wrote to say that they had his album on vinyl; however people found his music on CD at Amazon and at CDNow.
		The cover was very strange, but this was the 70's and we were all wearing lurex socks at the time.
