Focus – Hocus Pocus / Janis (7" Vinyl Single | DE Original | 1971)

Focus – Hocus Pocus / Janis is the 1971 single featuring the Dutch band's best-known piece. "Hocus Pocus" is a wild ride of heavy riffs, jazz touches and Thijs van Leer's yodelling, and became Focus' international breakthrough. The B-side holds the calmer "Janis"; the producer was Mike Vernon.

On offer is the German original pressing from 1971 on Polydor (2001 211) as a 7" single.
