Why didn’t I learn about this stuff the year I lived in Hungary? I’ve come across a boatload of Hungarian rock ‘n roll videos from the ’60s through early ’80s, and I’ve got to share some with you. It’s our Magyar Retro All-Request Weekend, and this first number goes out to my main Townsman, dbuskirk<\/strong>!

This next one goes out to General Slocum<\/strong>. I imagine that the bass part is something he would have dug as a teenage boy living in Budapest in the mid-70s.

I’m sure that’s more than enough Magyar Rock to get you through the weekend – wait<\/em>, I’m getting one more frantic request. And who is it I have on the line right now? The Great 48<\/strong>? I’ll tell you what, we can squeeze this one in if you make sure to lecture us about how it’s supposed to be funny<\/em>! (Seriously, Great One, you are missed.)

\nNot a week goes by that I don’t miss that country and the great friends we made that year. This weekend I miss it more than ever.<\/p>\n
