from Oannes blog…

…for a Wednesday morning

Στον μουσικό κόσμο των Ολλανδών Focus συνυπήρχαν οι δομές του progressive [οι δυο εγκέφαλοι του γκρουπ, ο οργανίστας – φλαουτίστας Thijs Van Leer και ο κιθαρίστας Jan Akkerman ήταν κλασικά σπουδαγμένοι μουσικοί] η ελευθεριότητα του jazz rock αλλά και στιγμές σπάνιας ρομαντικής αθωότητας – παράδειγμα αυτό το κομμάτι, από το τρίτο τους άλμπουμ…Ήταν το flip-side του single ‘Sylvia’.

The musical world of the Dutch band Focus entailed the structures of progressive [the group’s two ‘brains’, keyboardist – flutist Thijs Van Leer and guitarist Jan Akkerman were classically trained musicians] the freedom of jazz rock as well as moments of rare romantic innocence – an example of which is this track, from their third album… It was the flip-side of the single ‘Sylvia’.

Happy Hump Day!

More about these reblogs

Lately I have been rebloging music videos from Oannes new blog. For my friends who didn’t know, or wonder why…. Oannes [aka Socratis Papahatzis] is my husband, partner in life and music and the one with my undying admiration. Together we have a band MK-O [the music of Marina Kanavaki & Oannes]. So, it’s my pleasure to share with you his [and mine] musical selections. • Although here I reblog mainly his musical selections, he writes exceptional articles on various topics [some may need translation], so do visit his site. He has my highest recommendation!
