FOCUS - HOCUS-POCUS
The Life & Journey Of Music's Dutch Masters


by Peet Johnson

The first fully comprehensive chronological and biographical record of the innovative and hugely influential group, Focus - from its infancy in 1969 right through to the present day.

Compiled from more than 180 exclusive interviews with past and present band members and associates.

This 340 page book documents the dramatic roller-coaster ride from early struggles, meteoric global success, hits, misses, break-ups, tragedies, bitter law suits and eventual resurrection.

Also includes 20 pages of - many never before published - photographs.
