"Focus III" could build on the virtues of the previous album "Moving Waves" and led the line of ornate instrumental Rocks sent away. This great group remember the big hits of the 70s, "Sylvia", "Hocus Pocus", "House Of The King" and regarded today as one of the most important albums of the decade: "Moving Waves" (1971), "Focus 3 "(1972) and" Hamburger Concerto "(1974).

Artist was about to turn 65 years old!). The band began her career in the late 60's and 70, and his two musical brains were: playing piano and flute, Thijs van Leer and guitarist Jan Akkerman. They played a Hammond-heavy eclectic mix of what was then called "Hard Rock", classic rock and jazz elements with occasional jazzy excursions.įocus is probably one of the most recognizable brands of Dutch rock industry. "Focus" was a Dutch band that was one of the great hopes of the continental Europe music scene in the early seventies.
