Descrizione: Review: 50 Years: Anthology 1970-1976 is a box set that contains the complete work of Dutch rock group Focus between 1970 and 1976. The band – guitarist Jan Akkerman, keyboard player Thijs van Leer, bass player Bert Ruiter and drummer Pierre van der Linden – enjoyed global success during their first six years, touring extensively in the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia and Japan. Focus scored two unlikely worldwide hit singles with ‘Hocus Pocus’ and ‘Sylvia’ and sold several million albums during this period (such as ‘Moving Waves’, ‘Focus 3’ and ‘Hamburger Concerto’). 50 Years: Anthology 1970-1976 is curated by Focus/Jan Akkerman archivist Wouter Bessels (he previously curated the 26CD Akkerman box and recently worked on the Tangerine Dream box set), and features newly remastered versions of the first five studio albums all of which come with rare bonus tracks (single versions, alternates, rough mixes). Additionally, it includes 1973 live album At the Rainbow, the Ship of Memories compilation from 1976 (which features 11 bonus tracks), the complete BBC in Concert 1973 gig taken from the original stereo master tapes and a disc of unreleased live performances.
