    Accidentally "discovering" Gabor on RUclips is one of the happiest accidents of my life. I listen to jazz almost exclusively, but Gabor...gives me the world. All my previous musical influences wrapped up in one amazing stream of divinity.

    •  4 года назад +8

      I got to meet Gabor one night at the Blue Parrot in La Jolla, CA. I was probably 21, which would have meant this was 1979. My friend, lets call him Dan, invited me to head down to the club and be on the guest list. My buddies dad had known Gabor for years, and in fact Gabor had stayed at Dan's house in Canada (Quebec, I think).
      Gabor was a trip. After a long first set he came to our table and sat down to say hello to Dan and me, and Dan's dad. I think I recall Gabor drinking 2 gin and tonics in about 15 minutes and then eating a large shrimp dinner.
      My recollection is that Mr. Szabo went up and played even better after he had 4 gin and tonics. Always amazed me. I'm a player that on gigs just can't consume any alcohol. ....But I tried to take in that night.... I knew it would be one of few jazz experiences where I got to hang out with a known cat! It made me feel okay.... I'm pretty reserved (shy) and I recall Gabor was pleasant but not very involved in the conversation at the table. He definitely wasn't acting as though he was the "cool" guy in the club. He seemed intersted in drinking, eating, and getting back up on stage. I leaned on that memory of him being quiet in that social situation in moments when I got self-conscious about having nothing to add in conversations at gigs. I tried to tell myself that the music was the place to have your voice-your story. Mr. Szabo sure had that.

    As partially Hungarian I can say that this nation lost a whole lot with the lose of this genius, not in 1982 with his death, but in 1956 with his emigration. An extremely talented, open minded artist, with an unfortunately low resistance to both mental and physical impacts.
    Just like his playing: gentle, fragile, careful and consistent, sensitive, flammable and imaginative. I never knew You in person Gábor, but I feel we were on site together in all of my and your hard times. Thanks for everything, RIP friend.

      Ha nem vándolrol ki 56-ban, akkor vagy soha, vagy túl későn ismerte volna meg a Világ a zenéjét, a tehetségét.
      Egyre inkább az a meggyőződésem, hogy a magyarok szétvándorlása az egész Világban, na meg Történelmi Magyarországunk szétforgácsolása is azt jelenteni, hogy szét kell szórni magvainkat. Met a nevünkben a "mag" szó, mi mást jelenthet, mint a tudás tárháza, netán a tudás birtokosa. Lehet, hogy még 50-100 évet kell várni, hogy "virágba boruljunk", de az főleg felelősséget jeéent majd. Mer az emberiségnek végre változnia kell lelkileg, szellemileg.

      It was not meant as a sign of disrespect. I have highest respect for Hungarians. My comment simply meant that, by emigrating to the States, Szabo had managed to open the eyes of million westerners to European Jazz and East- and Central European music in general. He was incredibly talented person, At least two of his albums (Spellbinder and Dreams) should be in any decent music collection. Rest in peace, Gabor.

    I came to know him in the 70’s through Santana, and immediately realized Gabor Szabo was the strongest influence on Carlos Santana and understood why Santana’s music was so difficult to categorize in my record collection … rock, jazz, latin or gypsy? Yep, there was already a useful word : fusion!
    And on this vid, there’s a huge bonus. The bassist, Pege Aladár, who was admired by none other than Charles Mingus. Mingus was so impressed with Aladár that he wrote in his will to give his fave bass to Aladár … the most respectful gesture to a fellow genius musician.

      For decades I thought Peter Green was Santana’s biggest influence. From ‘Gypsy Queen’ I searched a couple of Sabo’s recordings. I couldn’t see much of connection back then. But after a few live videos I have to concur….Gabor had the biggest influence.
      I think the big thing Carlos took from Green was his tone…particularly from “Supernatural.”

    Én csak pár napja fedeztem fel, mert egy műsorban megjegyezték, mekkora nagy művész (volt). Addig még a nevét sem ismertem, talán egy-két zenéjét hallhattam a rádióban, de semmi több. Most a neten rákerestem, azóta szinte csak ezt hallgatom. Nem értek a zenéhez, csak szeretem, de arra rájöttem, latinos ritmusban játszik. Tősgyökeres magyarként, 2 sváb nagyszülővel mégis van bennem valami latin vér, máskülönben nem tetszenének a latin zenék és táncok, és nem kedvelném annyira az olaszokat, az olasz tájat.

Funny to remember these things....this was way back when and I was in my jazz period with music. My fave album was El Chico and I think Gabo Szabo played with Chico Hamilton on that. That you heard him live is just fabulous!!! In my recollection The Light House was a small place. It probably didn't cost much to go there or I wouldn't have been able to afford it. It's a shame live music is so expensive these days. Maybe it's different with jazz clubs. It's SO magical and forever deposited in the memory bank...live performances. So don't worry...Enlighten those people you're around .... REAL jazz enthusiasts SHOULD know Gabo Szabo for christ's sake. Personally I love jazz in the 50s and 60s maybe 70s. Later jazz is so bland...but that's just me. Can you recommend any recent jazz that isn't bland?

      I was mightily impressed by that bassist, and the freedom that Szabo let him have in playing his instrument. I've gigged with some famous musicians and with few exceptions, they want accompinament to be rote and unimaginative. Szabo is tops in having such trust and faith in the bassist - to allow him to float to experimental planes.

    Wow! Fantastic. I’m really getting into Gabor at the moment. I’ve known and loved his music for years. It’s great that he kicks off this set with Magical Connection (we hi hi also happens to be one of my favourite of his albums). Not only is his style and sound unique, so is his choice of material. What a total and utter dude!

    I first discovered Gabor Szabo in the early 60's in Los Angeles, California when i went to listen to the Chico Hamilton group which featured Charles Lloyd and a great young bassist named Albert Stinson. I thought at the time that I had just listened to one of the greatest groups ever. I then purchased their album A Different Journey which became one of my favorites. One should listen to the intriguing guitar work of his on this albums tune "One Sheridan Square" It is absolutely mind-blowing.

    ...Hi everyone. Fortunate enough to have witnessed Gabor, I think '77 or '78, shortly before I joined the Air Force. Little club right on the beach. Hermosa (?). Great jam session; I stood about 8' from the great man. Same for
    Coryell. See next page....

      Aguirre Cosmico
      Sorry for my poor English, but take it with warm feelings, as I did the translation. The footage is in Budapest, 1974. I think, it was his first or second visit, after so many years he escaped in 1956. He played together with Hungarian musicians.
      First part
      Gábor: First I tried to copy the american guitar players, I thought this is the way to play jazz. Accidentally one evening when I was not satisfied with the music, I was angry and… how to say I started to hit and beat my guitar. After a while my inhibitions started to disapper, and I realized, deep inside this is my music, instead of what I did before. Probably it’s mostly because I was born here… mostly because of my Hungarian origin. There (not here in Hungary) I realized how deep my roots are.
      Q: Does it mean, you could build your Hungarian spirit into the music?
      Gábor: No, my Hungarian spirit infiltrated into the music, it’s not a planned movement on my behalf. Formerly and presently as well I always tried to do something new… this way one can reach something really fresh and new, maybe not as the first intention was …
      Second part
      Gábor: Actually, I started my studies here, although I’m learning every day even now. Still, in the Berklee School, which is maybe the only one all over the world for modern music, I mean not classical, but the new music, which is just in it’s beginning, so, I studied there for three years. Obviously music theory is taught there, still it is like a musical playground with a lot of opportunity for experiments, surrounded by other musicians… if you have an idea, immediately you can try with them, and in the very moment it turns out, how your idea sounds in the reality. So, this three years is my official musical education, everything else is my autodidact efforts.
      Q: So who did you play with during the years?
      Gábor: Beside Chico Hamilton actually there are two names. One is Charles Lloyd, who became one of my best friend by the time, the other one is Gary McFarland, unfortunately he is not with us anymore. Anyhow it happened that I started with my own band. At that time the jazz seemed to be near it’s end, rock’n’roll appeared on the horizon, but unlike today, the genres were not mixing. Soon I prepared an LP, and after I got invitations to different clubs, concerts, etc..Frankly, first I was in a fright so much, still I took them on, cause I was considered of the direction I wished to go. For example, I converted a Beatles song, or a Hungarian folk song into jazz, but at that time it was not too popular. The jazz became narrow-minded, and I felt soon, a new music, a contemporary music is just awakening, by fusion of different genres and styles, like rock, jazz, Brazil or Hungarian folk song, Hindu, whatever you like. That time I felt, today I’m convinced, we are just in the middle of a very exciting era. Let me speak about Béla Bartók. Everybody scared me to listen his music, cause it is so hard to understand. After I heard it the first time, and I felt so touched to the core of my heart. Soon one can realize, how difficult and complicated his music is. Then he understands, this is not the primary point, most important is to express the feeling… One note, two, or ten thousand, it is the same if you don’t like to hear.
      Q: So what you say, the goal is the music, the instrument is only a tool…
      Gábor: Exactly. The English word is better to express it, cause it’s really simply an instrument. (In Hungarian for musical instrument we use a specific word - translator). It’s only a simple tool to make others being able to hear your feelings.

    Az IA/MI segítségével egy rövid összefoglaló. Remélem nem tévedünk:
    Ez egy pontos és hiteles összeállítás a Gábor Szabó 1974-ben Budapesten az MTV-stúdióban rögzített koncertjének résztvevőiről. Az esemény különlegességét a magyar jazz és könnyűzene olyan kiemelkedő alakjai adták, mint Pege Aladár vagy Kovács Kati, akik mind saját egyéni stílusukkal gazdagították a produkciót.
    A közreműködők:
    Imre Kőszegi: Magyarország egyik legnagyobb jazz-dobosa, akinek játékát a precizitás és az érzékeny dinamika jellemzi.
    István Dely: Ütőhangszeres zenész, aki a latin zene és a jazz ötvözésével egyedülálló hangzást adott a produkciónak.
    Aladár Pege: A világhírű "jazznagybőgős," akit gyakran a hangszer Paganinijének neveztek, rendkívüli technikai tudása miatt.
    János Másik: Zongorista, aki fiatal kora ellenére már akkor is kiemelkedő tehetségként volt ismert, és játékával modern színeket vitt a koncert hangzásvilágába.
    Kati Kovács: Az egyik legismertebb magyar énekesnő, aki mély érzelmekkel és erőteljes hanggal gazdagította az előadást.
    Gábor Szabó: Az esemény középpontjában természetesen Szabó Gábor állt, aki gitárjátékával és egyedi hangzásvilágával egyszerre képviselte a magyar népzenei gyökereket és a modern jazz innovációit.
    Ez a felállás tökéletesen példázta Szabó Gábor azon képességét, hogy összehozza a különböző stílusokat és művészeket egy különleges zenei élmény érdekében. A felvétel azóta is legendás, és sokak számára a magyar és nemzetközi jazz egyik csúcspontját jelenti, ahogy számomra is.
