    Errata corrige: At a certain point I describe a compass and a square as a Soviet star on a gate with freemasonry symbolic meaning. Only the latter aspect is correct. I got confused by the West Germany Soviet logo that indeed reports a compass.

    Thanks for uploading this, as I am a Hungarian-American. I love Budapest. I have several cousins that live there and we visited them in 1992, right after the Russians left. We went to a jazz club called the "Merlin" which was excellent. A great city indeed!

  • @patrickkelly9178
    @patrickkelly9178 2 роки тому +2

    Yes a very well constructed video. I live just outside the city in a town called Budaors so I know most of the music stores you mentioned. I would agree Wave is good for Hungarian cds but be warned it is pricey. I think that is also the case when buying second hand stuff from Lemeszkucko where all cds tend to be at least 3000fts and often more. But it does have a very good range and as you said, a decent selection which includes Hungarian artists. Mind if you pop around the corner back onto the Korut, and within two minutes walk from Lemeszkucko you will find a cd shop with a bright orange frontage selling cds mostly for under 2000 fts. The owner does not speak any English and his selection is not as good as it was before the pandemic. I do wonder if he may have had to closed down in twelve months, hopefully not as I have bought dozens of cd's from him over recent times at bargain prices. L agree that Laci Bacsi in the 7th district has a decent selection for vinyl, and in the main with more reasonable prices compared to many of the second hand stores in the city. , On the live music front the one glaring omission I would say from the many venues you could mention would in my mind be the A38 on the Danube. It is a unique place in terms of tis range of styles plus its mix between both local and international artists. It has a fairly modest and intimate atmosphere and a number of actual stages. As far as international acts I have seen Tens Years after, Black Stone Cherry and Richard Bona (ex Pat Metheny Group) have all played the main concert hall. In the coming months, Haken, the Slow Readers club, Bears Den and Carl Palmer are all scheduled. I sadly missed the Pineapple thief gig that was back in December. And in the coming week a fantastic local progressive rock band who have supported Dream Theatre in the past, called Special Providence have a reunion gig on. Ticket prices certainly compared to the UK are also very reasonable.

  • @zoltan_nikon

    Just a quick note. Actually you can find a lot of hungarian records in Romania, especially in Transylvania, due to the fact that a part of the romanian population is hungarian and there was a high demand for hungarian records. Still to this day as a romanian hungarian I have the chance to buy a LOT of records made in Hungary.

    2:08 - I'm sorry, the Square and Compasses sign has nothing to do with the five-pointed star. It is best known as the emblem of freemasonry, but it is was also the emblem of the architectural profession in general. This building, at Szent István körút 16., dates back to 1898 and I'm certain that the Square and Compasses were there from the beginning.

    • @anadialog
      @anadialog  2 роки тому +1

      No need to he sorry. I think you may be correct. The west Germany soviet logo has a compass like freemasonry, which I did mention in the video, but looking again my footage the square seems to depict a star but it is just a square.

      @@anadialog You did a great job on your first trip, loved the little historical context, and you even found the legendary Newport Records. Next time though, be sure to book a table at Opus Jazz Club for dinner during a concert. It is in an amazing building (Budapest Music Center) that also has an excellent studio on top. They produce high-quality releases under the BMC label….jazz and classical, local and international artists, affordable but truly excellent sound… this will be right up your alley. Check out some of our local audio manufacturers too, I wholeheartedly recommend that you experience a BAYZ speaker sometime, its something exceptional. Also plenty of fine tube amps being made around here, if you know where to look. Thank again for your visit, glad you had fun!
