    Really cool to hear this. Akkerman has a unique sound with hard rock, jazz, classical, blues, funk a sense of humor, and everything else, and his sweep picking was ahead of his time. There's really no other guitar player that gets that edgy combination of chops and groove that Akkerman cooks up- one of a kind. The rest of the band rocks too.

    このオランダのプログレッシブ・ロックのバンド、好きでした。メンバーのソロも含めて、レコードもほとんど所有しています。今聴いても、たいへんレベルの高い作品・演奏をしていたのだなぁ~と改めて感じます。40年前にタイム・スリップしました。感謝感激、、

    I've also recorded the live in Osaka Japan when I has been perhaps 16 years old, about forty years ago and the tape I've recorded is ??
    I think I still have it.

    Very polite audience, not much audience talk during the songs, applause after the song is ended etc. Japanese could learn all the rest of us a lot about respect and culture . 💁‍♂️

    What a great performance from one of the best prog bands ever. The keyboard player's voice is hard to bare when he goes for his Ian Gillan empression but for the most part, this band rules! (If one tolerated Billy Corgan singing all the time, Mr. keyboard man for a little while is not too bad)

    Very interesting to hear My Sweetheart played that way, well before it was done on Mother Focus where it's more discoish (if that's a word).

    Line-up is incorrect - Pierre van der Linden was on drums. I was no longer a member of Focus by that time.
