Barbaro

"Early in the afternoon there was this living legend called Babaro proven and making a few thousand Hungarians and foreigners to dance.

How can man forget Barabro? Who already had the chance to see them years ago - knows, there's no way to forget them.
The unique guitar-playing of Sándor Cziránku is grown out to be a school itself. He 'turbojets' his Robert Fripp-like inventions with the traditional elements of the Hungarian and Balkan folk music and also with rock. He was the one to walk self-confidently that unbeaten-path years ago when todays audience were not even planned to born.
Lately, on the vocals there's his best ever apprentice-follower: Miklós Both (guitar, vocals)playing his guitar and singing while moving around the stage mopping and mowing.
Although the rhythm section had stayed the same throughout the years; Sándor Herpai (drums) and Tamás Zsoldos (bass) make it clear that still they are the best on their quarter. And however the songs remained the same (augmented with the new material to be released soon), Cziránku's distinctive tapping runs on his double-neck 'SG'; the shaman-singing of Miki Both and the odd-even pulse of the rhythm section ecstasized German and French people, the Hungarian youngsters and their procreators too.

'Apacuka fundaluka, fundakávé kamanduka, abcug fundaluk, fundakávé kamanduk!'"
