Album
Mother Focus is the fifth studio album by the band Focus, released in 1975 on Polydor cat. 2310 408 in Europe, on Atco Records in North America and on EMI in Japan. Some tracks on the album mark a departure from the progressive rock style that dominated the group's prior work, and herald a funk music style with light jazz and pop at the centre. Bassist Bert Ruiter provided most of the themes, as van Leer had just recorded a solo album, O My Love, of his own music, and Jan Akkerman withheld. Focus - Mother Focus Full Album. Eric De Rosa.

Exclusive discount for Prime members. Sample this album Artist Sample. Nein: das 6. Album der Band, Mother Focus betitelt, verspricht mir nach wie vor gut zu sein, qualitativ ist es das auch, aber es kommt nicht an. Zum einen: hier lauscht man keiner Prog-Band mehr, hier wird alles ein wenig funky und leicht verdaulich. Ich sag mal, bösartig, wenn man manche Jan Akkerman Solo-Scheiben anhört fühlt man sich wie bei Gitarren-Jazz vom späteren George Benson. Qualitativ sind das super Musiker, aber es kommt nichts rüber. so auch leider bei Mother focus. Mother Focus, 03:04. I Need a Bathroom, 03:05. Bennie Helder, 03:32. Soft Vanilla, 03:03.
