Funny that in English "Avondrood" sounds like a robot that delivers cosmetics door to door. *In a Dickens novel. Though clearly it means "evening red (sky)". What a great track - at least as an instrumental I can sing along like a Dutchman!
I remember about 10 years ago when my old guitar teacher introduced me to Focus, I went and got their best of and spent a Friday night getting sloshed and listening to the album like the heathen I was, then this came on and I kept having to skip back and listen again and I must have listened to this intently about 10 times in a row. Stunning music. Made me go back and listen carefully to the rest of the album, and then dust off my dad's old vinyl of all their other stuff

Reminds me of the last days of a certain ancient civilization.

I love this tune so much. It's one of the most majestic and atmospheric guitar performances ever.
