The flute dances and the guitar howls - the frenzy and lyricism of European progressive rock.
The third and greatest album by the Dutch progressive rock band Focus. A masterpiece that combines humor and technique with a balance of "motion" and "stillness" that is appealing.
"Focus 3" is an ambitious two-disc album released in 1972 by Focus, a progressive rock band representing the Netherlands. The band's musicality freely crosses classical, jazz, and rock, and their unique humor are their forte. The representative song "Sylvia" has a melancholy melody that gives it a pop impression, while "Answers? Questions! Questions? Answers!" shines with the thrilling development unique to instrumentals. This is a monumental work that truly represents the essence of Focus.
