What do you know of him; Sylvia and Hocus Pocus by Focus?* Those are great tracks, kinda legendary prog-rock anthems, but he's far more cerebral now he has his own band. Plus his fellow band-mates really are top-notch as well.
He composes and performs what he wants now, rather than what some record lable demands. So, as he's technically brilliant and not at the whim of profit and the market, the result is some far more complex and interesting tunes.
* Please don't think I'm being snarky, I'm not!. It's just that IME even a very well-versed muso might be challenged to say they know more than those two Focus tracks.
