Absolutely we will never get this type of music again.

Always found it fascinating that Sylvia (guitar, written by Thijs) and House of the King (flute, written by Jan) were either side of the UK single!

Saw them in NY Central Park in the 70's - awesome then and still great!!

Nog steeds een van mijn favoriete songs van focus. (maar dan met Jan Akkerman)

Always been my favorite Focus song, love this modern rendition!

👏👏👏👏

A word for Udo Panakeet killing it on bass.

Awsome live band 🎼👌

One of ten prog songs. Hocus Pocus included.

Wonderful… just wonderful. Incredible musicians at the top of their game. And, no - of COURSE it’s ‘not Jan Akkerman’ …it’s not meant to be Jan Akkerman. It’s Menno Gootjes, and he’s doing what Menno Gootjes does. Brilliantly!

Still great all these years later, excellent performance 👏👍

nog steeds super!!!!

You raped the song... Never heard it being performed so bad

Qué gran versión GENIOSSSSSS!!!!!!!

Helaas doet Thijs een beetje seniel.....

that's not the real one :-)

veramente enorme

Hey genius keyboard player and yodeller - no need to sod about with fancy intros - I bought Sylvia as but a child in the 1970's - NLs should be proud of you - your music from this era early 70's is up there with the best of English music from early 70's --- best music era ever --- don't compromise or dumb-down for anyone

Musicians have a story to tell, would like you to listen, want to take you on their journey. there are some when i say no thank you, but with ome thijs i go anywhere, he takes you to places real fine.

The guitarist is comparable to Mr Akkerman!

How sad, that aging musos feel a need to keep rehashing their immortal hits worse and worse over the years. And equally sad that nostalgic fans can't objectively discern such renditions as crap. If you want to hear great renditions of Sylvia (or anything from the 70s), just stay home and put the old albums on. Sorry, but who wants to hear TVL *NOT YODELLING like he used to* and some tense newby *butchering Akkerman's superlative lead riffs* .

steen goed!!!!!

Only Jan Akkerman and kieth Cosgrove nail this

Should have trimmed off the first 2:10

Original é melhor!!!!

Congratulations Menno. Superb. Come to Ireland soon. We'll give you a great Cead Mile Failte.

Fantastic ‼️

Just saw them last night in The Earl Haig Club, Cardiff... ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC!!!

nee, het origineel liep lekkerder

Looking forward to seeing them at Trading Boundaries again this Friday

Looking forward to seeing them there on Jun16th 22 after their last gig there fell foul of Covid!...

Amazing band. Just seen this line up live tonight in Dover UK. What a treat!

Super.

Very very nice...

Jan Akkerman he aint, very average

Love and love and even more love! Thank you for the music.

Who's the bass player? Panneket?

I've just come home from seeing them at the Powerhaus in Camden and it was exactly like this! They are phenomenal.

Akkermanns touch is nowhere to be found, otherwise it`s OK.

Menno Gootjes is no Jan Akkerman, but then nobody else is. He is still pretty good.

Evoking great memories.

Brilliant!!!!!!!

Oppsy y doooo original plzzzzzz

Brilliant.......

The Dutch progressive rock band Focus was best known for their song "Hocus Pocus". However the band's greatest singles' chart success came with the guitar instrumental "Sylvia". I recorded this one and shot a "magic hands" video on my oil can guitar. ua-cam.com/video/rRckRO-N_tc/v-deo.html

Mark Ruffalo on bass

guitarist is a badass

Musicianship of the highest order, stunning.

Keep up the playfulness Thijs, it is very refreshing!
