    I'd thought I knew how good Focus was, just knowing two or three songs of them... I was mistaken. They're much better than I thought. A prog-rock band with such jazzistics insights that make them one of the most underrated bands of the last four decades.

    So good to have all these delighful Focus compositions all in one place, and as much as i appreciate the originals, many featuring JanA, I am happy to have slight differences in the sound of the ensemble, and all the players bring to the table on these Thijs pieces.

    Not bad at all. Now in considering the newer versions of Focus 1-4, I have always loved the original versions of these pieces. To me Jan Akkerman's technique and phrasing were impeccable and nobody can play them the way he did. That doesn't mean the newer versions are bad. They are ok. I just have a preference that favors Akkerman.

    Гениально! Привет из старенького доброго Советского Союза) Todos los musicos de Focus son excelentemente magnificos, pero Maestro Thijs Van Leer es El Genial Compositor de los siglos XX - XXI, y eso es la verdad, sin "bla-bla-bla".

      Я тоже услышал где-то в 1975 году , до сих пор слушаю с удовольствием , и очень нравиться гитара Яна Аккермана . А Тиш Ван Лир просто бесподобный , преподобный Фокус , душа коллектива ...

      @@user-fe1jc2yt9z если вдруг пропустили, послушайте раз десять композицию "Focus 11", затем весь одноимённый альбом Focus 11, - раз пять, и вы подсели однозначно -. И потом изучите обстоятельно Focus 8, Focus 9, Focus 10, Focus 11 и ретроспективный Focus 12. Не буду нахваливать, но эти последние номерные альбомы можно слушать вечно, это Музыка на века.

    Brilliant! I am buying it. However, can you tell me where the opening intro track comes from? You list it as Focus Zero. I recognize Thijs's work on Pedal Point but this intro version of Osanna seems to be a Focus group recording. Where did it come from?

      Данный трек это "паспорт", стержень души самого Thijs Van Leer, - здесь в виде концентрированной эссенции, аромат которой присутствует и на Focus - III, и на Pedal Point, и на Moving Waves, и на некоторых поздних концертах. Концентрат, Альтер Эго, пожалуй, самого гениального ученика Johann Sebastian Bach, имхо
