Overview
This is a monumental collector's piece for fans of Eastern European fusion: a fully signed original 1982 pressing of the self-titled Supergroup Live album. As the name suggests, this ensemble was a one-time gathering of the absolute elite of the Hungarian music scene, featuring core members from legendary bands like Locomotiv GT, V. Moto-Rock, Skorpió, and Dimenzió.
The front cover, featuring stylized color-pencil portraits of the musicians, is adorned with original signatures and a heartfelt dedication. The album is a masterpiece of early 80s fusion, blending the raw power of rock with the intricate sensitivity of jazz. Because this "Supergroup" was formed for a single tour and never released a studio follow-up, this live document is the only definitive record of their combined genius. Finding a copy fully signed by all eight masters is an exceptionally rare find.
Összefoglalás (Hungarian)
A magyar jazz-rock és fúziós zene egyik legfontosabb dokumentuma: a Supergroup Live albumának eredeti, 1982-es, teljesen dedikált példánya. Ahogy a név is jelzi, ez a formáció a korabeli magyar könnyűzene krémjét tömörítette: a Locomotiv GT, a V. Moto-Rock, a Skorpió és a Dimenzió meghatározó tagjai álltak össze egyetlen turné erejéig. A borítón látható eredeti aláírások és a személyes dedikáció ("Lukács Jánosnak szeretettel") teszi ezt a lemezt pótolhatatlan rocktörténeti ritkasággá. Mivel a zenekar csak erre az egyetlen turnéra állt össze, ez az élő felvétel az egyetlen lenyomata közös zsenialitásuknak.
Interesting Facts
- The Concept: The Supergroup was established by László Dés to challenge the boundaries between jazz and rock, proving that "Us and the enemy" (as some viewed the genres) could create a sophisticated, composed production.
- Double Everything: The lineup was unique for featuring two master keyboardists (Lerch & Másik), two guitar heroes (Tátrai & Karácsony), and two virtuosic drummers (Solti & Szende), creating an incredibly dense and rich wall of sound.
- Live Energy: The liner notes by Péter Bálint emphasize that the atmosphere and dynamism of these concerts surpassed all expectations, filling the power of rock with the complex emotions of jazz.
- Iconic Artwork: The cover features artistic sketches of the members, while the back cover shows a beautiful line-art illustration of László Dés playing the saxophone, reflecting the high-art aesthetic of the project.
