1001 Other AlbumsGábor Szabó – Spellbinder (1966, Hungary)Our next spotlight is on number 1038 on The List, submitted by miblo. This is the second of three albums the Hungarian guitarist released in 1966, showcasing his signature mix of pop and jazz standards with the sounds of his homeland. Included is Szabó’s original composition “Gypsy Queen”, perhaps better known via Santana’s medley cover on their 1970 Abraxas album.Want to read more?

1001 Other AlbumsGábor Szabó – Spellbinder (1966, Hungary)Our next spotlight is on number 1038 on <a href="https://1001otheralbums.com/the-list/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The List</a>, submitted by miblo.This was the first album submitted after I pointed out we had a suspicious lack of albums released in 1966 on The List. And now, listening to this album for the first time, it strikes me that on it is a cover of a single from 1966 first released by another artist we added to The List to fill the 1966 gap, Cher, the track being “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)”.[1] So, because my mind wanders, that made me want to know if there were other 1966 albums with this track. And, indeed, though it doesn’t appear again on any of The List albums, at least a handful of other artists covered it in 1966 including, of course, Nancy Sinatra’s version on How Does That Grab You?, as well as Stevie Wonder’s on Down to Earth. Also, rather interestingly, the song seemed to cross language lines pretty quickly, covered within 2 years of its initial release in French (by <a href="https://song.link/ca/i/217477922" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sheila</a>), Italian (by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUVJY4N9bbI" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Dalida</a>), Serbo-Croatian (by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzBCrHQaCjI" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Đorđe Marjanović</a>), and Chinese (by <a href="https://song.link/i/1445309701" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Betty Chung</a>). Perhaps it is my age, but this strikes me as odd, as, even in the digital age, there is typically a lag between the release of a song and covers, especially covers making it onto LPs and into other languages. Friends of an older vintage than me, was this a normal thing to happen with songs at the time? Or did this song in particular just knock everyone’s socks off?Anyway, I digress! This album and Szabó’s playing is, well, spellbinding! This is the second of three albums the Hungarian guitarist released in 1966, showcasing his signature mix of pop and jazz standards with the sounds of his homeland. Included is Szabó’s original composition “Gypsy Queen”, perhaps better known via Santana’s cover on their 1970 <a href="https://album.link/ca/i/871146591" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Abraxas</a> (as a medley with a cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Black Magic Woman”), an album that would later make the “official” 1001 list. Spellbinder and Szabó in general greatly influenced Carlos Santana’s music, particularly Santana’s shift from pure blues rock to “crossover” jazz fusion. And yet, none of Szabó’s 20+ albums are on the official list. Well. That’s why we’re here.Happy listening!<ul><li><a href="https://album.link/ca/i/1444102378" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Songlink: Gábor Szabó – Spellbinder</a></li><li><a href="https://www.discogs.com/master/68078-Gabor-Szabo-Spellbinder" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Discogs: Gábor Szabó – Spellbinder</a></li></ul><ol><li>The track is on Cher’s first album released in 1966, The Sonny Side of Chér, not the second one which we have on the list, the <a href="https://1001otheralbums.com/2024/09/08/spaceace-sunday-cher-cher-1966-us/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">s/t</a>. ↩︎</li></ol><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://1001otheralbums.com/tag/1960s/" target="_blank">#1960s</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://1001otheralbums.com/tag/carlos-santana/" target="_blank">#CarlosSantana</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://1001otheralbums.com/tag/gabor-szabo/" target="_blank">#GáborSzabó</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://1001otheralbums.com/tag/guitar/" target="_blank">#guitar</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://1001otheralbums.com/tag/hungarian-music/" target="_blank">#HungarianMusic</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://1001otheralbums.com/tag/hungary/" target="_blank">#Hungary</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://1001otheralbums.com/tag/jazz/" target="_blank">#jazz</a>
