Nagy Lajos- Varok Rad (Hungary)















Nagy Lajos- Varok Rad (Hungary)

From my own collection

By my knowledge, this is a rare record. Barely any info on the label, and no info at all on the singer Nagy Lajos. Who is Nagy Lajos? If you know anything about Nagy Lajos, please leave a comment. Anyway, this album was released somewhere around 1958-1961 based on some of the songs. Songs include covers of foreign hits including Patricia, Brazil (Titled Mexico here), Fascination, Melody D'Amour, Petite Fleur (Kicsi Virag in Hungarian) and Istanbul. Also some Hungarian songs. Also on the back of the album, there are the names & tracklistings of Nagy Lajos' other albums, and one has the year 1957 mentioned. Enjoy the swing, mambo & other latin stylings, waltz, pop, with good instrumental group. By the way, this album is also signed by the man himself in the bottom right. Enjoy! I would appreciate any info on this ablum & artist! More pictures down below.
