Focus – Live in London ‘73 (12-Inch Album on White Vinyl)

A collection of BBC radio broadcast recordings from Dutch progressive-rock legends Focus, bringing together two performances recorded live at London's legendary Paris Theatre in 1973 and 1976.

The earlier performance, recorded on 17 January 1973, captures Focus during the classic period that established them as one of Europe's most exciting progressive-rock bands, with the extraordinary instrumental talents of Thijs van Leer, Jan Akkerman, Bert Ruiter and Pierre van der Linden. The second performance, recorded on 21 March 1976, documents the band in a later phase of their career, making this an interesting release for fans keen to hear the evolution of Focus across the decade.

Featuring the band's trademark blend of progressive rock, jazz, classical influences and virtuosic improvisation, these BBC sessions provide a superb snapshot of Focus as a live act at two distinct points in their history.
