I was just talking to Jack Jones about Jan Akkerman .....Hocus Pocus !
That song could really discourage wannabe guitarists.
Unfortunately the only time I saw Focus they were terrible. The group was about to break up and it sounded that way. The support group (Sebastian Hardy) were better, and in Melbourne Focus were booed and the crowd called fro SH to come back on stage. Friend who saw the previous tour said it was brilliant but I was too young then to be allowed up to Sydney by myself.
Every morning I get woken up to the tune of Brian Adam's Summer of 69 going full pelt in my 16y old son's (Emiel) bedroom. In the car we cycle through the above and a CD of some local Launceston artists who play leather instruments that were designed and made by a now deceased local artist Gary Greenwood. We also have the token U2 disc as well.
