Wonderful drummer: Pierre Van Der Linden !!!

Best Dutch drummer ever!

[@hybridgarden]

Fun fact, the drummer in this video is the original drummer who played on the recording

[@PaarlNuus]

On my birthday 20 April 2023, turned 54. Still love these guys. Umr - Cape Town, SA.

[@thomcalhoun6341]

When I was twelve I would sit in my room with headphones on and play my drums to this record, over and over!

[@frankfalkenberg1568]

Thijs van Leer - iconic! 🙂

[@cigarmerchant2238]

WOW...nearly 50 years from when I first heard this and they sound just as great now as then. GLAD OUR GUYS, of our generation still keep their music alive. Thanks for posting

[@josdegruiter3835]

@@lukagovorcin3610 His name is Akkerman, but you're right! Jan Akkerman, still performing.

[@BrianMorrison]

​@@josdegruiter3835 It would be great to get Jan to play with Thijs again, but we haven't forgotten.

[@josdegruiter3835]

@@BrianMorrison That would be great, but Jan and Thijs are not the best of friends anymore, so I'm afraid it will never happen. It's a pity. Together they were brilliant, seperately they are just good.

Fantástico! Como é bom relembrar está música. Ainda viva! Rock para sempre.

Stage managed a festival where they headlined years ago. Thijs is a lot of fun. He tried to drown me in the hotel pool later that night...long story!

[@wheelie63]

i have the original album [ since the 70's] so i wanted to watch this anyway...........but i would have tuned in just to see and hear that beautiful green Les Paul.! wb

[@hjones451]

I too saw them in the 70s - Still sounding great!

[@magiaytransformacionsivila5455]

Nicely Done!!Cheers!!;-)!

[@keithekins6536]

Moving waves probably the best prog rock album ever

[@ericjohnson3746]

Way back when they first released this I was in highschool. I remember talking about it with friends. Did you hear that song? What is it? I dunno but it's cool. The radio played it a lot then( in New Orleans). Always loved focus since then. Thank God for you tube.

[@markstevens6568]

My girlfriend at the time (Irma) was a huge fan and introduced me to this band - wow almost 50 years! Hang in there guys!

[@migueltula9173]

[@kingrobert1st]

Loved the relic of the Hammond G4 but would prefer also the relics of the original band Focus.

[@barroncrist5779]

That's not Jan Akkerman on guitar but that is the original singer/keyboard player. Jan Akkerman is still performing.

[@massapower]

The Dude still has the LUNGS.. INCREDIBLE!😁👍🏻

[@ralfbond258]

Thijs still has it!!🦂🦂

[@irmaoksanen6830]

why did it cut out in the middle of the drum solo?

[@travelpointone991]

A pity that Thijs and Jan are no longer on good terms.

Hey🎸Tight performance guys👍👉🍺It's hard to hit the high notes when you get older I mean more mature🤣😁🤳☮️

Vunerful. Vunerful. Vunerful. Next, we do the Hokey-Pokey. and then, we do the Polka. "Pop" goes the bubble. Cue the Champagne Musak "I'm Forever, Blowing Up Bubbles." It's the Lawrence Welk Prophecy
