“Moving Waves is the 1971 second album by Dutch band Focus. It includes the hit "Hocus Pocus" featuring yodelling and operatic falsetto from Thijs van Leer combined with Jan Akkerman's heavy metal guitar. Even though the sound of the album was highly experimental for the time, it became very successful peaking at #9 in the Dutch Top 40 and later becoming popular in the United States, with "Hocus Pocus" raised at a #9 position on the Billboard Hot 100, and a #2 position in the UK Albums Chart.
The album also features "Eruption" a 23 minute long adaptation of Jacopo Peri's opera Euridice, which tells the tale of Orpheus and Euridice.
In the Q & Mojo Classic Special Edition Pink Floyd & The Story of Prog Rock, the album came #24 in its list of "40 Cosmic Rock Albums".”
