Akkerman is a distinctive guitarist, constantly experimenting with new equipment and guitars. Akkerman's distinctive guitar sound is characterised by his pioneering use of volume swells which produce a smooth, fluty, sustained tone, and other complex techniques such as sweep picking, tapping, and high-speed alternate picking. He also pioneered the use of the lute in a rock band, reflecting his interest in medieval and Renaissance music and culture. He first reached world acclaim in the 1970s when he was seen as the core of the Dutch rock band, Focus, together with Thijs van Leer. Biography Akkerman was born in the 'Jordaan' area of Amsterdam, the son of a scrap iron trader.

The Hunters was een Nederbietgroep die voortkwam uit de Amsterdamse Johnny and his Cellar Rockers. De eerste formatie was Jan Akkerman (gitaar), Sidney Wachtel (drums), Ron Bijtelaar (basgitaar) en Paul Hubert (slaggitaar). De groep legde zich aanvankelijk toe op het uitbrengen van covers als You were on my mind (een Amerikaanse hit van de We Five) en Mr. Tambourine Man van The Byrds. De grootste hit van de band was een compositie van Akkerman en producer Casper Koelman: Russian spy and I verscheen begin 1966 en kwam tot nummer 10 in de Top 40. Het nummer viel vooral op door het virtuoze gitaarspel van Akkerman, dat geïnspireerd lijkt door de flamenco muziek. De opvolger Janosh was heel wat minder succesvol en kwam maar net in de Top 40. Eind 1966 werd Hubert vervangen door organist Frank Smit. De band probeerde met de snel veranderende muzikale voorkeuren van de jaren '60 mee te groeien en bracht singles uit als I'm the king en Strange things appear uit. Het was echter "not happening" voor The Hunters en eind 1967 besloot de band het voor gezien te houden. Jan Akkerman tekende een solocontract voor Bovema en nam (met Bijtelaar en Wachtel als begeleiders) een instrumentale lp op met als titel Talent for sale. In 1968 richtte Akkerman Brainbox op. Ron Bijtelaar dook in de 21e eeuw op in De Maskers.. + Informações

"Theme from Exodus" arrangement from Johnny (Jan Akkerman) & his Cellar Rockers (1961). Bart Strik -- The Jazzmaster King - had to stop playing guitar with his guitarband The Explosion Rockets on medical advice in 1986. Although he played together with some friends now and than. In the spring of 1992 he accepted the invitation to join The Rhythm Kings on May 30, 1992 in the Brabanthallen during the great 'Back To The Sixties' revival show in 's Hertogenbosch. Bart played once more with his inimitable Jazzmaster sound the stars of heaven. All his technique and soul he put into his guitar playing that night. It was a unique event that fortunately was captured on video. It turned out to have been his final act. Bart died July 26, 1993. Line-up: Bart Strik (lead gt.), Hans van Ballegooy (rhythm gt.), Jos van Muyen (bass gt.) and Arno van Ballegooy (drums).. + Informações

Focus is a Dutch rock band which was founded by classically trained organist/flautist Thijs van Leer in 1969, and is most famous for the instrumental pieces "Hocus Pocus" and "Sylvia". The band have found renewed fame due to the use of "Hocus Pocus" by guitarist Gary Hoey on his 1993 album Animal Instinct, and as the theme for the Nike 2010 World Cup commercial, Write The Future, directed by the Mexican filmmaker Alejandro González Iñárritu. At the release of their first album Focus Plays Focus (aka In and Out of Focus) (1970), Focus comprised keyboardist and flutist Thijs van Leer, guitarist Jan Akkerman, bassist Martin Dresden, and drummer Hans Cleuver. The album was little noticed outside the Netherlands, where a small but avid fan base developed. Akkerman left the group to form another band with bassist Cyril Havermans and Pierre van der Linden, a drummer he had previously performed with in Johnny and the Cellar Rockers, The Hunters, and Brainbox. When Cleuver and Dresden left Focus shortly after, Van Leer joined Akkerman, Van der Linden, and Havermans as the new lineup of Focus. In 1971, the group released Focus II (aka Moving Waves), which brought the band international acclaim and a hit on both sides of the Atlantic with the radio edit of "Hocus Pocus". This rock classic consists of Akkerman's guitar chord sequence used as a recurring theme, with quirky and energetic interludes that include alto flute riffs, accordion, guitar, and drum solos - along with Van Leer's .... + Informações
