Are you referring to the band from the 60s or 70s, who had the song Hocus Pocus? It was Hocus Pocus by Focus...

They had that live album from the early 70's.
I think they recorded it in europe.
You also had The Golden Earrings from about there, and about the same time.

The band is much cooler than the car... wouldn't surprise me if Ford named the car after the band-maybe they figured some of the band's awesomeness would rub off on the car[/quote]
