I have always wanted to cover this song because I'm a huge guitar enthusiast (and player) but the awkward strange vocal breaks had always kept me at arms distance from doing so. This never became more apparent than when I approached other well-known guitar player friends of mine who passed on doing this song for that specific reason. So I decided to raise the bar in typical Ken Tamplin fashion and turn those "vocal break weaknesses" into strengths. You are about to find out what I mean :-) Without getting too preachy, I believe that anything in life that we have shied away from because of our "weaknesses" we can turn into strengths just like I did here in this song. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it :-) Ken Tamplin Vocal Academy Where the proof is in the playing, the singing and turning failures into successes.
What a fun idea! And you can see that the performers are having so much fun indeed. Little bit disappointed, I didn't get to hear Gabi yodeling, though! :P
Amazing mashup! Have been playing it ad infinitum for the last week.... The girl can sing! But the supporting cast is impressive as well. We need more like this!!
I'm 60 I have drummed in many progresive rock bands I had to learn Hocus Pocus many years back for an Audition I never did nail it but came close...this is a whole different animal, incredible MashUp ..this must have took a while, who was the brains behind it ...I have watched many times always find something new..Top Notch all of YOU ..all at the top of your GAME
At least here in Brazil, there is not an single man under 50 who knows Hocus Pocus of Focus, beside me. Gabriela is truly amazing, my deceased professor would have loved this vid.
Ken...Ken....Ken... You know we all love gaby like a kid sister! Amazing talent... and your choice of musicians is nothing short of impeccable. As Always, BRAVO !!! P.S. You have to put ten or twelve of your musician buddies together and put this talent on the road.
Freakin EPIC!!!!!!! That was incredible!!!!! So cool to see Gabriela play guitar!!!! And the amazing star musicians is awesome!!!!! So so cool!!!!!! Loved it!!!!!!
Never heard of hocus pocus by focus it all rhymes awesome guitar playing intro loved that scream you held out Gabriella that was freaking awesome it rocks love the bohemian rhapsody in this awesome singing Gabriela awesome band I'm jamming to this this rocks I didn't know Gabriela played guitar awesome great vocals great spot on high notes and screaming awesome awesome awesome well done this rocked I was impressed with this killer band rock on guys 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Oh man, as much as I enjoyed the sprinkles of Queen and DP, I was really really really looking forward to hearing her sing the original Hocus Pocus line at least once....
Probably the most amazing mash-up these old eyes have ever seen (and of course, heard). It was great to see Rudy still wailing on bass, and this gal Gabriela Gunčíková just may be the most excellent female Rock singer I've ever has the pleasure of listening to. Great job by all, obvious each and every one of you virtuosos in your own right! 🤘
It´s amazing. Me, discohead, I´m starting loving rock, hard rock and metal music, especially thanks to Gabriela, you guys should make an album together and tour America
In this day of crap pop,you all are a pleasure to listen to.That was awesome!Real people with real talent. I just stumbled on to some of the stuff that your posting last night and I can’t get enough.Makes me want to dust off my drums and jam again,drummer is killing it,please don’t stop.
Ken... Simply ....WOW! Really? Mind blowing creativity, camaraderie, and most importantly....FUN! Hope has been given for a better tomorrow. BRAVO to you and Gabby and everyone honoring us all....your fans!! Rock on... :)
🙊 WOW! Everyone did a phenomenal job! So glad to see Rudy again! Kudos to you Ken! 👏 👏👏👏 We need to see you take part as well. Keep these coming! Love love love it! 🔨 🔥
You killed it, guys! It's beyond words. Such a stand out! You're front and centre with your unique talent and earth-shattering voice, Gab! Musician ate it and left no crumbs as well. These hodgepodge of different talented people did me a lot of good. You mash with each other to a T. I have hots for Rudy! Killer guitarist! One of my all-time favs. Treasure!😍💕❤️🥰💗💞🤘
WoooooooooW...! Holy crap balls lol. Gabriela is just amazing..!! Every song she does is FLAWLESS! That voice, so powerful and beautiful, well, she is also beautiful. I would love to hear her sing "Beyond The Doors Of The Dark" by SAVATAGE..! Or any song by them for that matter. One of the bands I learned to play the drums to. She would slay that. Please put that in your to do list :).
..was just about to say : I was sorry for making a mistake.. BUT : Gabriela is Here!!?? ..What a talented , singer ,powerhouse!! ..and YOU put ,the onlyone of my bass hero at all times: Rudy Sarzo(!) in the mix(?) ..good lord.. what a video..
Get Outta Here!! KEN?!! WOW!! You kicked me sideways! I did NOT see that coming. Now I KNOW you are genius!! Thunderbolts of Lightning. What was I thinking?! Yodi Dodda, Yodi Dodda.....
I'm into it! Great sound everyone my ears are tingling! I love Gabriela - and today I notice her cool purple eye makeup. She always has a cool look. And wow! She's a rock star! Great band tho. Enjoyed every body... Thanks for making my Friday.
Outstanding - they updated the sound but kept the feel of the original. Fantastic choices of other songs (and which parts of those songs) to use. I am usually very wary of "shredding for shredding's sake," but the great honor was done to the musicality of the original. Well done!
That was extraordinary. I'm old enough to remember the original versions on release. Jan Akkerman and Ritchie Blackmore would be very impressed. Outstanding vocals. Beautifully arranged. Congratulations to everyone involved!! P.S. can't wait for another " mash up" like this one!!
Holy smokes, Ken! I'm a massive fan of the original but this mashup took it to a whole other place. Massive props to everyone involved. Straight to the car deck it goes. This is going to cost me a fortune in speeding tickets. 😅
Awesome Collab! Blew my mind and did my heart good :)) Seeing you guys having a blast I can't escape the conviction we see a new Rock Queen lay an explosive claim to global fame. Large stadiums and wild crowds are crying out for you, Gab! Rock on, guys!
You all are perfect at what you do. As of today, you are the best cover band I know on the planet Earth. Your Academy, Ken, is a very good company, and Gabriela Guncikowa is like a diamond. For its creation, God should receive the Nobel Prize. :) P.S. I used to play drums in an amateur band. Currently, I am learning to play the guitars, keyboard and singing a little, and I 'envy' all of you, but in the positive sense of the word. :)
Excellent and seamless, I remember when Hocus Pocus first came out in the early 70s. And then with these guys mashing everything else in there so seamlessly and, doing every one of those added Tunes Justice almost to perfection. I would love to have heard this young lady actually do the vocals with Ritchie Blackmore. Very good job I enjoy the hell out of it.
I do not know what I would say, I can only say a beautiful mix of my beloved songs in one. Thank you GG & R. Sarzo - K. Mary - S. Van Zen - P. Bradley - G. Schutt , The best of the best
Congrats to each and every one of you all!! You all are something more than excellent!! Ken is a top top top notch instructor. And Rudy Sarzo is a phenomenal bass player.
Fricken the best information overload ever! I can't imagine ANYONE dare taking this on after that! FRICK! I DARE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ha ha ha ha ha ha I agree. TRY IOT I DARE YOU!
First time seeing Gabriela playing guitar. Excellent vocals as always. Her star is rising. Rock on, girl! Awesome band, too.
Thanks so much!!
@@kentamplin You're welcome. You're doing great work, Ken.

Thanks Robby appreciate it
She looks amazing, killer vocals. And can also plays the guitar. She has it all. Her and the guys rocked it.
Oh man, as much as I enjoyed the sprinkles of Queen and DP, I was really really really looking forward to hearing her sing the original Hocus Pocus line at least once....
Agreed!
Good tribute, but I was also hoping to hear Gabriela, yodel, howl, whistle and rockin a flute.
If you ever played in a band, you know this is what having fun is like. Thanks for the ride!
What a masterpiece!!! I've loved this song since the 70's.
Probably the most amazing mash-up these old eyes have ever seen (and of course, heard).

Wow wat a mix ...came here from facebook...!
Thanks for listening!
So much goodness in one video. Just awesome. Thanks Ken.
Outstanding - they updated the sound but kept the feel of the original. Fantastic choices of other songs (and which parts of those songs) to use. I am usually very wary of "shredding for shredding's sake," but the great honor was done to the musicality of the original. Well done!

DAMN!!! Love to See All Of Them Tour Together!! Ken, Awesome Job Putting It Together!! But The Proof is in the Musicians and Vocals, WOW
I love it when the musicians love what they are playing.
Great mix! Only classics! Gabi plays too!!😊😊🤘🤘🎸🎸
Holy smokes, Ken! I'm a massive fan of the original but this mashup took it to a whole other place. Massive props to everyone involved. Straight to the car deck it goes. This is going to cost me a fortune in speeding tickets. 😅
This is great👍👏😊
Cool! They did an awesome medley! Gabriela is also awesome!
Ok, that was some serious "badassery" right there! Bravo to all involved!
Absolutely!
Smoke show!! Who knew Gabriela could play guitar!! Bonus! Great instrumental parts.
Glad you enjoy them!
Had to listen 3 times to make sure i caught it all ;) that awesome!!!!!
Awesome!
I'd love to hear a full version of Highway Star. Gabriela would rock that so good
Maybe one day!
