Come do rock show in the UK….. most of the classic rock bands are brittish anyway….. you’d sell out anywhere t’d be incredible

It’s the same speed as Focus’s original studio version, but much slower than some of their live performances.
Good cover though, not many bands have attempted to cover this succesfully, but these guys pull it off really well

Alleen dat gejodel: afschuwelijk.

I don’t think anyone will ever cover this better – but I still don’t think anyone will ever do it better than Focus did.

March 28th, 2007 at 9:13 am
Marillion did a brilliant version a cpl of yrs ago at the fans convention in Holland steve rotherys guitar was wonderful.

Any person who complains about this cover is a complete fucking douche!
March 28th, 2007 at 10:21 am
they should speed it up a bit imo. just feels a bit too slow compared to the original
March 28th, 2007 at 10:43 am

March 28th, 2007 at 11:33 am

Think you all enjoyed playing this EPIC. I certainly enjoyed listening. Have fun. Jan’s thee man.

GAH!

Great version, guys!
you have taken one of the most difficult pieces in rock history, originally played by three virtuosos as Thijs Van Leer, Jan Akkerman and Pierre Van Der Linden (sorry Bert), and made your own VERSION (not a cover)…GOOD FOR THAT!
March 28th, 2007 at 12:23 pm
Great instrumental version of this song! By far the best cover I’ve heard. But you can’t take van Leer out of the equation and have it all work. He’s got that magic on vocals.
