Bo Hansson
Swedish keyboard ace Bo Hansson, best known for his 1972 album of music inspired by Lord of the Rings, is believed to have begun his music career in the late 60’s as part of the duo Hansson & Karlsson, a keyboard player and a drummer. Their major claim to fame was that Jimi Hendrix had seen and liked them when he visited Sweden in the 60s, and he even covered one of their songs, "Tax Free."
Hansson has always been something of a recluse, and little is known about him or of his activities after his Charisma period.
