Born in Hungary in 1936, Gábor Szabó became a major name on the emerging US jazz fusion circuit in the 1960s. By the mid-'70s he was firmly established as one of the most popular guitarists in the style, influencing Carlos Santana, George Benson, and many others. This superb live set was taped at the Agora Theatre in Cleveland in 1976 for broadcast on the Agora Radio Network's New World of Jazz show, to coincide with the release of Szabó's classic 1976 Nightflight LP. The complete broadcast is presented here in digitally remastered sound with background notes and images.

Exact repro of Hungarian guitarist Gabor Szabo's 1975 album. "Dave Brubeck said... that we would see a gradual blending of the world's musical cultures. It has happened with astonishing swiftness, as this album shows. Consider particularly the tune 'Macho.' It is a jazz piece, composed by a Hungarian guitarist out of Spanish melodic and harmonic elements, arranged by an American pianist, and with the rhythm section using materials from both Brazil and Cuba."
