    The live version from 1973 (Midnight Special) is a MUST!!!!
  • @ameyer1970
    This is the slow version of the song. The midnight special version of this, the band was told they were only going to have 5 minutes. So instead of cutting out any part of the song, they sped up their playing.
  • @wardka
    I hadn't heard the studio version in ages. Everyone is so worked up over the live Midnight Special version, and it is a huge joy to watch, but I think this is the definitive version at a saner pace.
  • All the while Jan Akkerman was playing these solos, he looked liked he was half asleep and had a cigarette on in an ashtray next to him. A stunning guitarist.
  • @unusual686
    You need to react to the live version from The Midnight Special.
  • @richmayes8451
    Live version from Midnight Special is something you really need to see and react to!
  • @Sp33gan
    Red Bull and coffee, Maggie? You've got to watch the live Midnight Special performance where they were told the time slot they had to for this song was about half the length of the song so they'd have to cut it short. Instead, they played it twice as fast. Incredible, and the audience gave them a standing ovation for it.
  • @bossfan49
    I'm glad you listened to the studio version. It's the right thing to do for a first time listen. This is what the band wanted, and it's where tbey get it perfect with great sound quality. You can hear everything clearly. If you choose to listen to another version now, you'll appreciate its uniqueness because you'll have simething to compare it to.
  • Yes you MUST check out the live version. Especially the longer version which has 2 or 3 extra parts. Both are from the same performance of The Midnight Special. Enjoy.
  • You need the live version from Midnight Special. Bonkers!!!!
  • Saw them live in the 70s. Akkerman was using 2000 watts of amplification. There were 16 Leslie cabinets. It was very impressive musically and in terms of volume. This song is loads of fun, but don’t overlook the rest of their tracks.
  • @bobbit8987
    If you think this was insane, the live version will have your brain cells stumbling all over themselves.
  • This what we were listening to in the 1970s. It was a great time to grow up and for music.
  • @PatR2243
    Don't even wanna think how long it's been since I even heard the name of the group let alone heard the song. Thank you Roy for bringing it back to life.
  • @MyNickdanger
    So glad you got to hear Hocus Pocus by Focus~ It's an Incredible song by an Incredible Band! Thanks for all your videos! Love you! Peace!~
  • @peterdoe2617
    Not only do I have this album in my shelf: we used to dance to this! And I still would, beeing this old. This is true F U N !
  • @n5iln
    The first time I ever heard this I literally had to pull over because it came on the radio while I was driving and I was laughing too hard to safely drive. Guitarist Gary Hoey covered this in the early 1990s and did a respectable job of it, but without the yodeling, it’s just a cover.
  • @fgrady1
    I agree with everyone else to bring on the “Midnight Special” HYPER version of “Hocus Pocus”. It’s a trip and a half!!
