Hey everyone! Here's the next episode of Three-For-All with 3 Jan Akkerman Licks From 1973. I've had a number of requests to feature some of Jan's legendary music, and this lesson concludes the recent "Double Dutch" series of episodes I've put together - as the previous Golden Earring Chordplay lesson along with this episode feature legendary musicians from the Netherlands - so let's dive in!
This lesson features a number of interesting ideas pulled from a Focus live performance in 1973. During the concert, Jan is throwing out all sorts of wicked licks and ideas - including fast whole tone phrases, chromatic/symmetrical licks, aggressive sweep picking, and various other early 1970s technical guitar moves and techniques.
The ideas shared here include a unique-sounding jazzy double-stop slip-n-slide phrase, a jazzy melodic motif that features rhythmic variations, an emotive arpeggio-based phrase, a super-funky melodic slip-n-slide lick, and much more!
Needless to say, if you're a fan of Jan Akkerman/Focus, a fan of classic rock and prog rock from the 1970s, a player searching for some new ideas to stick in their bag of tricks, or maybe you're just curious what all the fuss is about - this lesson is totally for you! Give this episode a view, leave some comments/feedback, and please subscribe to Late Night Lessons - THANK YOU!

I never clicked on a video so fast. Jan was also in a band called Brainbox that are also worth looking into.

Yep. Jan Akkerman is so overlooked now. He was not only technically a better player than so many more famous rock guitarists of the time, but he clearly had much broader musical knowledge than many, and was very original.

@knightfall9394 there are several possibilities. Either you don't know his work well, or you don't know the music well, or both at the same time.

He actually didn’t have much theoretical knowledge back then, by his own admission. He was fairly instinctive. A bit like Beck.

Even Jimmy Page said Akkerman was the best. He straddled rock and jazz fusion, etc sort of like Jeff Beck, but he had his own unique chops and style.

George Kooneymans from Golden Earring was a great player too. Of course Adrian Vandenberg was amazing. EVH was born in the Netherlands. Never realized how many great axemen came from The Netherlands.

Focus’s big break was playing the U.K. late evening rock show Old Grey Whistle Test in 1973 - they created an instant buzz with that one appearance and then had their big hit Sylvia.

Jan wrote so many great tunes. If I may give some suggestions; “House of the King”, “Tommy” and the USA version of “Hocus Pocus”. He and I were columnists for the same guitarmagazine (Guitar Plus) for some years and I got to know him as someone with a great sense of humor (mostly edgy “dad jokes” that only work in the Dutch language). Featuring Jan in LNS (voted best guitarplayer in the world in 1973) is more than justified if you ask me. We Dutch would say “goed bezig” (well done)……

@@ljw5768 Absolutely right, he did. Barlage played sax in the band Solution and recorded the song with the title "Divergence". Jan renamed the tune "Tommy" when he recorded it.

@@willschut4917 Thanks for the link. I've been following Focus & Jan for just over 50 years. My first gig was on the Hamburger tour in 1974. Last time I saw Focus was in Wales last month and Jan (twice) in the Trading Boundaries last week. My favourite band & guitarist ever.

The studio version is Prima Donna but the live version on the album 10,000 Clowns was titled Pre Madonna as a joke.
