1973 - Focus at their best. Jan Akkerman, named "World's Best Guitarist" by Melody Maker in 1973 ahead of Eric Clapton and others, was amazingly on form in this performance. Recorded at the Rainbow Theatre, London, Saturday, 5th May, 1973. Jan Akkerman (guitar), Thijs Van Leer (keyboards, flute), Bert Ruiter (bass guitar), Pierre Van Der Linden (drums)." Hocus Pocus," is almost unrecognizable. This live version is multiple times faster than its studio. Throughout the album the performance is simply astonishing. "Sylvia" is another gem.
