Bo Hansson happens to be one of my all-time favourites. He recorded
three albums after "Lord of the Rings", their titles were "The Magicians
Hat", "Attic Thoughts" and "El-ahrairah" (also titled "Watership down"),
all very worth listening to. Bo Hansson was quite popular here in
Germany in the 70s, because of Winfried Trenkler's radio shows who
played his music quite often.

There's another CD available with very early Hansson music, called
"Hansson & Karlsson". This is a little odd, only drums and Hammond
organ. But the later "electronic" Hansson can clearly be heard in some tracks.

Anybody know of other recordings?

Sorry for OT.
