Attic Thoughts is a 1975 instrumental progressive rock album by Swedish musician Bo Hansson. [2]
The album was recorded during 1974 and 1975 at Studio Decibel in Stockholm, and at Hansson's home, which had virtually become a studio by this point in his career. [3] [4] The album featured contributions from many of the same session musicians and friends that had played on Hansson's previous album, Magician's Hat. [4] In addition to featuring Hansson's usual blend of other-worldly progressive rock and fairy tale-like ambiance, Attic Thoughts includes a suite named "Rabbit Music", which was inspired by Richard Adams' novel Watership Down, a subject which Hansson would explore further on his 1977 album Music Inspired by Watership Down. [5]
In Hansson's native Sweden, Attic Thoughts was released with the Swedish title of Mellanväsen. [6] It was released with its English title in April 1975 by Charisma Records, [2] [7] but was less commercially successful than Hansson's preceding solo albums and failed to reach the charts in the UK or the United States.
