Focus were a Dutch band led by guitarist Jan Akkerman that debuted with
In And Out Of Focus (1970).
Moving Waves (1972) contains the fast-paced novelty number
Hocus Pocus, a melodic fantasy for the age of hard-rock.
But the album's centerpiece is actually the 23-minute jam
Eruption, their equivalent of the Colosseum's Valentyne Suite.
Following albums were far less interesting:
Focus 3 (1972), that contains the 27-minute instrumental jam
Anonymus II (way too long for what it has to say),
Hamburger Concerto (1974), that contains the ambitious (and much better)
side-long title-track,
Ship Of Memories (1974),
Mother Focus (1975).
In 1977 Belgian jazz guitarist Philip Catherine replaced Akkerman and Focus
releases
Focus Con Proby (1978).
