Listener Reviews & Comments
After breaking big with the novelty song "Hocus Pocus" and several albums highlighting the musical dexerity of Van Leer and Akkerman, Focus settled down some for this album. HC is a collection of songs that range from Rockist agression in "Birth" to soaring beauty "La Cathedral de Strausberg." This gives the entire album a unity that the major piece "Hamberger Concerto" exploits to great effect. I get the impression that this album was thought out more so than most Prog works of the same period; certainly I listened to it more than Yes's coeval attempts at extended dexerity. HC shows more understanding of music, more control of form than most other proggers could muster. Tuneful, various, and not overblown despite it's lengeth, HC balances the line between rock and complexity.
