I don't know. I have heard of the group and once upon
a time I knew a dude who listened to them.

It's a big wide Intertubes, if sadly deteriorated in its
best sectors (i.e.) here. other ppl might know.

I do understand not wanting to wander about lookeing
for a *ptui* webforum.

OTOH it's not like the Dooms of Offa, which probably
are really lost

Aristotle's _ Dialogues _ didn't make it either.

So far, it sounds like you're right, even in crappy YT MP4 through earbuds
. . . .

Bless you.

I only ever had Octopus and the live double LP (remember those)?

A friend was obsessed with Three Friends, which I thought was boring as
Hell (had, IIRC, one decent song on it, about it).

I've brooded over this for forty years.

Oh God, part-singing and boinging. Just wonderful, in the usual somewhat
stilted GG way.

i have a scratchy vinyl copy of Octopus, but found a decent mp3 rip online.

glad i could help you find a song that is as old as i am.

here's another good one:

Quite familiar with Focus, especially "Hamburger Concerto".

This one starts out boingy, but then drives, explodes and bellies out,
