Maybe the first beat influenced record in Hungary, made in 1963. Lehel Németh was the popular "hit song" singer. He born in Romania (Transylvania) in 1932, but he moved to Hungary during 1944 because of the WWII. . His music career started in 1957, when he sang on the first new year's show in the National TV. He sang a lot of top songs during the early 60s, and he released some 7" and EPs. He became the "Hungarian Sinatra" or the "Hungarian Elvis", the womens kissed his western car, and catched his cigarette stubs for souvenir...ecc. In 1965 he left the Hungary with his wife, and went to Canada, he became the worker, and later became a businessman. He came back to Hungary in 1991, and died in 2005.
Look at this EP! I bought it 2 years ago in a little antique shop in Szeged for less than 1 euro...
There are 3 funny hungarian lyrics twist songs and 1 instrumental song from The Shadows (Apache).
The first side (Kísértet; Számum) is sweetly, but forgettable... but the B side is cool! Song "Minden ország" (meaning : "In Every Country") is a fast twist song with a cool guitar sound and with a silly lyrics. The follower band , Mediterrán' s Shadows cover is nice! I think, better than the original upright and exact rhythm!
About the follower band: Mediterrán was the band who following some top song singer, and their guitar player was Levente Szörényi (later about him), who later join to the band Illés in 1964. (After his join, the Illés became the "Hungarian Beatles")
Enjoy!
