/+Omega (band)Omega is a Hungarian band formed in 1962, which has been described as the most successful Hungarian rock band in history.[1] They have released more than 20 albums in both Hungarian and English. After several early personnel changes, their classic lineup came together in 1971 and was intact for more than forty years. Singer János Kóbor and keyboardist/singer László Benkő have been in the band continuously since 1962; while guitarist György Molnár and drummer Ferenc Debreczeni joined in 1967 and 1971 respectively. They have won several prestigious awards for their contributions to Hungarian culture.History
Omega was formed in Budapest in 1962 by Benkő and Kóbor, with trombonist Győző Bánkúti, drummer Tamás Künsztler, saxophonist Péter Láng, guitarist Ferenc Tornóczky, and bassist István Varsányi. The members had all been in previous bands at the same grammar school.Their first concert was at Budapest's University of Technology and Economics in September 1962.The band went through many personnel changes in its first several years, and mostly played covers of British rock songs.Omega first began to write their own songs with the arrival in 1967 of keyboardist/singer Gábor Presser, who was adept in rock, jazz, and folk songwriting.Guitarist György Molnár and bassist/singer Tamás Mihály also joined in 1967. The following year, the band was invited to tour England, where they recorded their debut album Omega: Red Star From Hungary with English lyrics for Decca Records.Later that year, the album was re-recorded in Hungarian and released in the band's home country as Trombitás Frédi és a Rettenetes Emberek (Trumpeter Freddy and the Terrible People).[1][8] The band's sound during this period included experiments in psychedelic rock. Their 1969 song "Gyöngyhajú lány" ("The Girl With Pearls in Her Hair") was an international hit, and was later covered by the Scorpions.During this period, members of Omega also gained notice for backing several Hungarian pop singers, most notably Sarolta Zalatnay.In 1971, Gábor Presser and drummer József Laux (who had joined in 1964) left Omega and formed the progressive rock band Locomotiv GT. (Tamás Somló, who had played saxophone for Omega from 1964 to 1968, became bassist for Locomotiv GT in 1973). Presser was not replaced, while the band recruited new drummer Ferenc Debreczeni. The resulting lineup of Kóbor (vocals), Benkő (keyboards/vocals), Molnár (guitar), Mihály (bass/vocals), and Debreczeni (drums) remained intact for more than 40 years until Mihály retired from touring in 2014. Presser's jazz- and folk-oriented keyboards and songwriting had been dominant in Omega's sound; after his departure the band moved toward progressive rock and space rock with Benkő's classically-oriented keyboards and Molnár's heavy guitar as the focus.This incarnation of Omega released ten more albums starting in 1972 until taking an extended break in 1987. Most of those were released in both Hungarian and English versions. During the 1970s in particular, some of the band's albums were restricted or banned in Hungary due to the Communist regime's view that hard rock music was subversive. However, they were able to tour in East Germany and recorded some songs in German for their fans in that country.During this period they were also noted for science fiction-oriented lyrics.After their thirteenth album Babylon in 1987, Omega went on hiatus so the members could focus on side projects.Omega performing in 2010 (L-R: Debreceni, Kóbor, Molnár, Mihály, Benkő)//+///+///+///+///+ I have no words, as I do not own the copyright for this wonderful music album,D.V.D..if society and administration consider that I am a copyright violator I will delete it and remove it, from my channel, my deep respect and great thanks!!!
