Editorial Reviews:
Labeled as 'the Nureyev of the guitar' by jazz critic Leonard Feather, Gabor Szabo was at his creative peak when this record appeared. On 1969, Gabor Szabo puts a Jazz spin on popular songs of the '60s including 'Walk Away Renee' (a major hit for The Left Banke), the Beatles' 'In My Life,' and Joni Mitchell's 'Both Sides Now.' There were many Jazz artists who wouldn't have touched these songs in 1969 but Szabo acknowledges that worthwhile popular music didn't die with George Gershwin. The Hungarian guitarist deserves credit for bringing a Jazz perspective to songs that so many other improvisers were ignoring. Produced by Gary McFarland. Skye Records.
 
 
Description:

Szabó Gábor (Budapest, 1936. március 8. – Budapest, 1982. február 28.) magyar dzsesszgitáros és zeneszerző. Ő volt az első olyan magyar dzsesszmuzsikus, aki nemzetközileg elismert és népszerű, szakmailag pedig jelentős dalszerző lett, és akit játéka alapján ma is számon tartanak.

Életműve Magyarországon sokáig szinte ismeretlen volt, lemezei 1990-ig gyakorlatilag beszerezhetetlenek voltak. Művészetének adózva 1992-ben a Magyar Jazzszövetség megalapította a Szabó Gábor-díjat, amelyet minden évben olyan művész kap meg a Magyar Kulturális Alapítvány támogatásával, aki tevékenységével hozzájárul a magyar jazzművészet színvonalának fejlődéséhez, nemzetközi elismertségéhez.

Recorded January 20–24, 1969 United Recording Studio, Los Angeles, California
