Among the many neon indicators of the Sixties, there have been many written letters not solely as a result of they expressed the fashionable momentum of the time, but additionally as a result of the circuit was not interrupted, i.e. the present might be drawn right into a single neon tube. The nice circuit of Hungarian rock and roll was interrupted by the breakup of Hungária in 1983, however in 1995 Miklós Fenyő once more put collectively an enormous neon parade within the Népstadion, following which often held Fenyő Únnepek in varied sports activities halls, farewell summer time rock and roll events on Margitsziget and in stone theaters with musical performances introduced once more the ambiance of Opera Luxus cologne-scented dance occasions.
Kissing kings and jampips
On June 1, on the Puskás Enviornment, they may recall the atomic age, the Omnia espresso machines paying homage to the Sputnik satellite tv for pc, and the time when Fenyő now not needed to cover in a suba, however in a leopard print sports activities jacket. And naturally, Resort Menthol is a significantly better place than the extremely technical Sole Mio bar, the place the microphone isn’t within the bedrooms, however the place it ought to be: on the lodge’s floodlit stage.
And there is no stopping, a vinyl album was not too long ago launched, on which you’ll be able to hear Hungaria’s debut live performance on the youth park on Could 24, 1980. This will need to have been the get together when the band immediately burst into motion. That spring, there was nonetheless no indication that the reign of not-so-sincere, and not-so-stone-hard laborious rock would quickly finish.
Again to the Future
The large get together of Piramis was nonetheless hanging within the window of the Vörösmarty tér report retailer of Hungaroton, Edda’s debut album was launched a month in the past, which precipitated hysteria much like Piramis. Korál’s first album was additionally launched, the most effective basic Hungarian rock albums ever made. After the departure of P. Mobil Vikidál, it organized its ranks, Beatrice turned a nationwide problem, and if the Youth Journal didn’t produce a photograph report on the pipers in a given month, its gross sales dropped. We lived in historic occasions, when Hungária bluffed that it had a LP’s value of fabric, so it had every week to jot down it. On the live performance album, we hear the songs from the primary album, which was put collectively in a number of days.
What a celebration
The Fenyős performed flawlessly and with such vitality that the viewers – which had really gathered for a expertise competitors – instantly surrendered. Hungária was the shock visitor of the night. A barely extra open viewers gathers at a contest, however taking part in rock and roll within the Ifipark in 1980 was like coming into a lion’s den. At the moment, largely laborious rock bands performed there, Korál carried out to a full home a number of weeks earlier, on Could 1st, and three days following Hungária’s live performance on Could twenty fourth, Edda gave certainly one of their finest live shows. And sure, that is the evening the park’s stone railing fell, injuring many younger individuals. (After that, the establishment was closed for a 12 months.) It was a suicidal mission to play within the Ifipark, in inexperienced jackets, with brilliantinine-infused serum, in entrance of the long-haired, morose youngsters. However throughout Fenyőék’s dynamic, life-affirming, cheerful efficiency, everybody purchased the cardboard, as a result of in spite of everything, who would not need to be the king of kisses?
Filtol and organ
The discharge of the album has nothing to do with Hungária’s live performance on June 1, 2024, the Moiras label, which recorded the report, needed to launch one other uncommon recording from Hungária that 12 months. That they had already launched a vinyl album of unreleased songs as soon as, so Fenyő instructed that it ought to be their 1980 live performance, the tape of which he has saved for 44 years. Because the recording was nice materials, so the Rock and roll get togethert additionally supervisor László Nemes might not have had a troublesome process in enhancing the manufacturing. Monitor 12 sounds virtually nearly as good because the debut album, as an example a rawer, extra dynamic model of it. On the album is the unreleased Only one step The Fenyő–Novai recording is mezmeszag, which was formally launched for the primary time.
A Rock and Roll Live performance in Ifipark a fancy Hungarian expertise, with an ideal cowl design (György Kis and László Kovács) and the quilt photograph (Tamás Urbán). The geometric shapes are echoed on the inside label as nicely, so the entire thing is like seeing the paving of the hall of an engineering technical faculty whereas ready for commencement within the scent cloud of Filtol cigarettes and organ. The momentum of the album is what Fenyő at all times needed, its loudness is probably nearer to the genuine sound of Aréna, however on the similar time it’s also an necessary interval doc past its enjoyment worth, because it exhibits the band even earlier than the recording of the Rock and Roll Celebration. Furthermore, to the nice delight of philologists, in some songs – for instance the Jungle rock is in What a celebration in its lyrics – there are some minor variations in comparison with the album variations. THE Only one step and it is a trendy finish to the report, as a result of the band was actually just one step away from the large breakthrough at the moment.
