Date Label Catalog # Comments
Classic Rock Legends Ltd. 1920 Disc one features rare material from 1971 with the band improvising, rehearsing and refining material for the album that would become Moving Waves. Also included are extended extracts from the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1972 and 1973 which helped break Focus in the UK. From 1974 there is a rare concert film of the Hamburger Concerto era, said by some to be amongst their finest work. Disc two features the whole of the stunning film of the triumphant return to the US stage by Focus, and includes all of the highlights from a magnificent career including Hocus Pocus, Sylvia, House of the King and Focus III. The 48-page full colour book features an in-depth critique of the studio albums. This two-volume set reveals inside information about Focus, the band behind MOVING WAVES. Concert footage and raw studio sessions provide an in-depth picture of the progressive rock group.
