@hieronomy In my opinion, what happened was, at that time, there were people who had not only rock and roll skills, but many more things to say... mainly people from europe, they know about jazz and classical music, these instruments were kind of avant-guard....etc
Akkerman along with mcLaughlin were the first highly trained guitarists . I always appreciated virtuosity and instrumental mastery . Akkerman was more accesable than Mclaughlin , melodic . Isaw FOcus once and Akkermans tone was the clearest I've heard , just beautiful ! Back then he was head over heels better than everyone else .
Minuto 3:06 no les parece una gran influencia de Tarkus ELP? Aparte de eso una gran composición de Focus

I meant highly trained in the popular rock market . Of course there were the jazz greats like Joe Pass , Les Paul
etc.
