Thank-You! Thank-You! Thank-You! I remember watching this when it first aired. I was just a teenager and fledgling guitarist. I LOVED THIS BAND! Jan Akkerman still kicks ass! And Thijs is amazing! I wonder of Don Kirshner saved any of these vids? My idiot friends at that time were either into Led Zeppelin or The Allman Brothers. Those were great bands, but my buds could not get past the 'yodeling'. Goddamn morons. FOCUS rocked!!! (Do you have the rest of this gig on tape???)

Hi my friend

This is a television program homemade recording from Brazil, which was exhibited in 1977, called Rock Concert.

This program focuses the live at rainbow show.

Hamburgo Concerto is an little plus (extra) that came along, but incomplete. The recording on VHS is too old is much worse. I changed the audio on pro tools, because the original was not audible.

I edited this stretch and had to deal with the audio and video before going youtube, as were very bad.

I'm sorry

Rgd´s

You got to love Thijs van Leer. Focus is like The Doors on steroids, but with true master musicians and without a wannebe poet. Great show!

I think I just had an acid flashback.....AWESOME !!!!!

Actually it is not from "Rock Concert" (Globo), but from a program called "Concerto de rock" (Bandeirantes). The year is right, 1977. Wish more of "Concerto de rock" could be released here, it was a incredible program which used to feature live footage from UFO, Bad Company, Rare Earth, Uriah Heep and other rock acts.

@guitarguy382 This should appear in one of the DVD sets. Look for the Hamburgo Concerto from Amazon's offerings..
