Inspired by Lord of the Rings

It's a 1972 album by Bo Hansson.  It's moody prog-rock, mainly organ and synth, with percussion and other instruments along for the ride.  These are musical impressions, "inspired" by LOTR.  I bought the LP in 1973 or so.  This is from a reissue.

01. Leaving Shire (3:31)
02. The Old Forest & Tom Bombadil (3:44)
03. Fog on the Barrow-Downs (2:31)
04. The Black Riders & The Flight to the Ford (4:08)
05. At the House of Elrond & The Ring Goes South (4:43)
06. A Journey in the Dark (1:13)
07. Lothlorien (4:01)
08. Shadowfax (0:50)
09. The Horns of Rohan & The Battle of the Pelennor Fields (4:00)

Music Inspired by Lord of the Rings

Maybe you'll like it.  Or at least be haunted by it, as I am.  See you on Monday!
