Notes:
The Dutch
Progressive-Rock Legend Band Focus return with their 12th studio album, recorded
in the world-renowned Wisseloord Studio in the Netherlands.
The majority of the album has been written by Thijs van Leer who, at age 75,
still rises at 4.30 am every day to work on his latest compositions.
The unstoppable Pierre van der Linden takes up Focus drumming duties, as he has
done for more than 50 years.
This is the first Focus album to have been produced by band members Udo
Pannekeet and Menno Gootjes – who also contribute compositions.
The album features a first for a Focus album: a completely improvised piece,
recorded as it spontaneously
took place in the studio.
Focus continue to be one of the hardest working rock bands on the planet,
regularly touring the globe
playing live.
Once again, Focus showcase their long-standing association with artist Roger
Dean – whose beautiful artwork graces the packaging.
