Cyril (album)


Cyril is the first solo album by Dutch singer-songwriter Cyril Havermans. It was recorded in 1973 after Havermans left Dutch progressive rock band Focus. The parting was amicable and came about partly as a result of Havermans' desire to include more vocal content. His erstwhile band-mates contribute much instrumentation to the album.
The songs are, for the most part, short acoustic guitar driven numbers and bear little resemblance to Focus material. The lyrics are in English, apart from the traditional song "The Humpbacked Flute Player".
