08 - Hokus Pokus - Focus (live from Focus at the Rainbow)

Certainly sustained, and very dramatic. Not sure lovely is a term I'd apply to Thijs Van Leer's yodelling though.

 

[Kay Pirinha]

Rather artistic than lovely, maybe? Anyway, Live at the Rainbow is a great album by a great band!

Best regards!

I thought this 15 song collection would be quick and easy.

 

[jaxboy]

Unless you are intimately familiar with how each song in your collection (9000+ in my case) is laid out, you have to listen to each for a sustain of sufficient length to be able to answer this collection. I don't have that kind of time.

 

[system7]

It is easy. Linda Ronstadt wins!

I agree with @techtool:

What a voice. 🙂

Makes it look flippin' EFFORTLESS on sustain. The sign of a true PROFESSIONAL, IMO!

Of course it is NOT. Takes PRACTISE and GIFTEDNESS.

New Theme.
