An excellent debut. -
OLIVER - OLIVER - Standing Stone - Guerssen Press - LISTENprice: 80,00 PLN / 20,00 EUR
This is one of the most cult and rarest British private press records of the 70s, and among collectors it long functioned almost as a legend. The album was recorded using practically home methods by Oliver Chaplin and the whole thing was created in a spirit of complete independence as a mixture of psychedelia, acid folk and experimental blues. The recordings were made on a 4-track TEAC tape recorder, without synthesisers, often using a single microphone. This gives the record a very raw, organic and at times even "hallucinatory" sound. Short pieces flow one into another and the music at times recalls the style of Syd Barrett, and at moments the experiments of Captain Beefheart. -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - 10000 Lepes +4 - Hungarian GrundRecords Remastered Expanded - LISTENprice: 85,00 PLN / 21,25 EUR
A remastered version from 2022. Released in 1969, a fantastic, second, Hungarian album containing above all 'Girl With Pearl Hair' but also several other killers, such as the title track, 'Tekozlo Fiuk' or 'Tuzvihar'. This mixture of late psychedelia/early progressive rock in the vein of Procol Harum and The Moody Blues, heavy rock in the style of Hendrix and folk ballad - all of it mixed with the addition of sharp Hungarian spices - was at the time world-class when it came to Eastern Rock! Compared with this album, the work of, say, Polish bands simply did not exist! A Hungarian remastered CD with excellent, perfectly fitting four bonus tracks from excellent singles. AN ABSOLUTE MUST! (JL) -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - Ejszkai Orszagut +6 - Hungarian GrundRecords Expanded Edition - LISTENprice: 85,00 PLN / 21,25 EUR
In my opinion the third album, released in 1970 (English title: Nocturnal Road), was top-shelf European progressive playing, inspired by the work of Jethro Tull, King Crimson and Led Zeppelin but also by European classical music! It is a much darker album than the others, at times very heavy, almost Sabbath-like (the stunning second track), though also containing some of the most beautiful melodies in the band's career! It was the last title with Gabor Presser, who, together with the hitherto hard-hitting drummer, left to found Locomotiv GT! Additionally as many as 6 bonus tracks from Hungarian, English-language singles, that is half of the second album and Dead Are The Flowers! AN ABSOLUTE MUST! (JL) -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - 6 - Nem Tudom A Neved (Original Hungarian Vinyl Cover) - ITA Eastern Time - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
Remastered, limited Italian edition of the great sixth album from 1974 (heralding more progressive, slightly gentler sounds) - now in the original cover known from the vinyl. Excellent sound quality. Highly recommended! (JL) -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - Beat (Rare Tracks 1966-1968) - Hungarian GrundRecords Edition - LISTENprice: 90,00 PLN / 22,50 EUR
A compilation of recordings from 1966–1968, that is the period just before the debut album 'Trombitas Fredi' (1968), and of course before the band worked out its own, psych-prog-rock sound in 1969. The remastered, Hungarian CD contains both Hungarian compositions and interpretations of the world hits of the day, including pieces by The Rolling Stones, The Hollies, The Spencer Davis Group, Tom Jones and Herman's Hermits. The material shows the group as an excellent beat band, drawing on British rock, rhythm & blues and soul, but already revealing its own character. János Kóbor's characteristic singing, melodic guitar and organ parts and youthful energy give these recordings an exceptional character. A MUST! -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - Elo Omega (Original 1972 Album Version) +6 - AUT Enigmatic Remastered & Expanded - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
This is the best album Omega ever recorded and (in my humble opinion) perhaps the best record from Eastern Europe?! At last someone has come to their senses and reissued on CD the fourth in the Hungarian discography, supposedly live record, released in 1972 in an aluminium (!) cover, which was made mainly in the studio, as well as during 'live' performances. The problem is that to all the tracks were added applause, at moments artificial-sounding (e.g. appearing suddenly), or cries from the audience. Personally I really like these shouts and know them almost by heart, and the LP itself is an exemplary case of how heavy, but melodic progressive rock should be played! Years later a clean version, without the audience noise but rather metallically compressed, was released on CD under the title '200 Evvel Az Utolso Haboru Utan' (1998). This one, however, is a remastered and greatly improved edition of the original vinyl release from 1972. It is worth knowing that even the first CD edition of Elo Omega (in a grey cover with red lettering) contained a changed, compressed mix from 1980 (known from the 5-record vinyl box set). So this ORIGINAL VERSION HAS BEEN RELEASED ON CD FOR THE FIRST TIME! In addition 2 brand new tracks from the 'studio' CD, 4 tracks from singles of the time and several nice photos from the original vinyl editions (including the Czech Supraphon) are included. The whole thing now sounds very dynamic and miles better than ever, although slight hiss is still audible. AN ABSOLUTE MUST! -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – Élő Omega – Kisstadion ’77 (2CD) - HUN Remastered Editionprice: 130,00 PLN / 32,50 EUR
An exceptional document of one of Omega's most important concerts in its classic line-up. The two-disc release presents for the first time the complete recording of the performance at Budapest's Kisstadion, showing the band at the peak of its artistic powers. The concert programme is based mainly on material from the albums "Nem tudom a neved" and "Időrabló", enriched with earlier compositions and the English-language track "Family Strong". On stage Omega impresses with extended parts for organ, Moog synthesisers and mellotron, striking guitar solos and the compact, dynamic playing of the rhythm section. Particular attention is drawn by the extended versions of "A Névtelen Utazó", the suite "Időrabló", "Éjféli Koncert" and the striking instrumental showpieces titled "Szintetizátormutatványok", which are a demonstration of László Benkő's abilities. The recording captures the atmosphere of Omega's concerts of the second half of the seventies, when the group was among the biggest rock stars in Central and Eastern Europe. The remastered sound preserves the authentic character of the archival material, while offering much better quality than earlier sources. -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – Gammapolis (Hungarian Version, 1979) - Hungarian GrundRecords Remastered Edition - LISTENprice: 90,00 PLN / 22,50 EUR
A remastered Hungarian CD from 2022. On the Hungarian-language, progressive, classic album released in 1979, the band combined extended, symphonic arrangements with a sound of synthesisers that was modern for its time, creating a coherent, futuristic musical story. -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - 5 - ITA Eastern Time Remastered Edition - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
Remastered Italian edition of the excellent fifth album released in Hungary in 1973. The centrepiece of the record is the nearly 20-minute 'Suite' – an impressive suite of symphonic sweep, smoothly combining moody passages with more dynamic and instrumental ones. A MUST! (JL) -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - Csillagok Utjan (Omega VIII) - GrundRecords Edition - LISTENprice: 90,00 PLN / 22,50 EUR
A Hungarian 2022 edition. Recorded in Hungary, "Csillagok Utján" is among Omega's most valued albums of the second half of the seventies and forms a bridge between the monumental Időrabló and the groundbreaking Gammapolis. The band develops here its characteristic symphonic-progressive sound, enriching it with even more extended synthesiser parts and subtle electronic textures. The record captivates with a coherent atmosphere, rich arrangements and a skilful combination of melodiousness with progressive sweep. -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - X - Az Arc +5 - Hungarian Grund Records Edition - LISTENprice: 90,00 PLN / 22,50 EUR
A remastered Hungarian CD from 2022. Released in 1981, the tenth, Hungarian album was a considerable and rather unpleasant surprise for Omega fans because it was characterised by a modern, electronic sound, where synthesisers and extended keyboard parts played as important a role as guitars. The album in part still retained a progressive, hard rock character, but at the same time contained more compact and accessible compositions than those on earlier records. On the other hand the music is anyway miles better than that nightmarish, off-putting sleeve... Additionally 5 live bonus tracks are included, presenting Omega's best-known pieces in 'live' versions. Worth the risk! -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - Testamentum - HUN Digipack Edition - LISTENprice: 80,00 PLN / 20,00 EUR
An album recorded in 2016-2020, released after the deaths of Laszlo Benko and Tamas Mihaly. A digipak with a 16-page booklet. -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – 200 Years After The Last War / The Hall Of Floaters In The Sky (2CD) - GER MIG Music Edition - LISTENprice: 110,00 PLN / 27,50 EUR
A 2022 remastered edition of two English-language studio albums originally made by German Bellaphon and now in one two-disc release: '200 Years After The Last War' (1974) - containing their famous, 20-minute suite and 'The Hall Of Floaters In The Sky' (1975). Classic, progressive playing from the period of the fifth and sixth Hungarian albums. A must! -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – Babylon + The Dark Side Of The Earth (+6) - GrundRecords Remastered Editionprice: 90,00 PLN / 22,50 EUR
Babylon is Omega's 13th Hungarian-language studio album, recorded in 1987 in the band's studio, and particularly interesting is the second part of the release – six English-language recordings from the project The Dark Side Of The Earth, which was never officially released at the time as a full album. These are English versions of tracks from Omega's repertoire, recorded in 1986–1987. -
![OMEGA – KonceRt. [Népstadion, 1999] (2CD) - GrundRecords Remastered Edition](/img/towary/2/2026_09/OMEGA-KonceRt-Npstadion-1999-2CD-GrundRecords-Remastered-Edition-1.jpg)
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – KonceRt. [Népstadion, 1999] (2CD) - GrundRecords Remastered Editionprice: 140,00 PLN / 35,00 EUR
This is a recording of Omega's second big concert at Budapest's Népstadion, which took place on 4 September 1999. The programme was based above all on tracks from the band's hard rock period, but there were also classic compositions from earlier records and an extended passage from "Szvit". -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – The Beaty Sixties - GrundRecords Remastered Digipack Editionprice: 90,00 PLN / 22,50 EUR
The title "The Beaty Sixties" is a little misleading, because not all the recordings come from the 60s. The set also includes English versions of tracks recorded in the early 70s, including material related to the albums Omega III (1974) and 200 Years After the Last War (1974). -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – Time Robber (1976) + Skyrover (1978) (2CD) - GER MIG Music Edition - LISTENprice: 110,00 PLN / 27,50 EUR
A 2CD collecting two somewhat later, but probably the most important, English-language albums by Omega from the period of its (relatively) greatest international successes. It is worth knowing that in 1975-1978 the band's records came out not only in Germany, but also in Britain, in several European countries and in North America! "Time Robber" (1976) was characterised by the mighty sound of Moog synthesisers and mellotron and striking guitar parts, which gave the music a monumental, almost symphonic character. "Skyrover" (1978) develops this style, offering more compact compositions, while retaining the space, melodiousness and cosmic atmosphere characteristic of the band. The distinct keyboard parts, dynamic rhythm section and expressive singing of János Kóbor created a coherent whole. Highly recommended! (JL) -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - 5 +2 - Hungarian GrundRecords Remastered Edition - LISTENprice: 90,00 PLN / 22,50 EUR
A Hungarian edition, remastered in 2022, of the excellent fifth album released by Pepita in 1973. The centrepiece of the record is the nearly 20-minute 'Suite' – an impressive suite of symphonic sweep, smoothly combining atmospheric passages with more dynamic and instrumental ones. Additionally 2 rare recordings are included. A MUST! (JL) -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA - Hall Of Floaters In The Sky (German 4th Album) - AUT Enigmatic Remastered Edition - LISTEN - VERY RAREprice: 60,00 PLN / 15,00 EUR
Remastered edition of the fourth European album, released in its day (1975) by West German Bellaphon, as well as by British Decca! No Eastern Bloc band could boast a comparable achievement! The English-language record, adorned with an attractive cover, contained tracks known (in other versions) from the earlier three Hungarian albums and, as is usual for Omega, impressed with a powerful, juicily produced ('wall of sound') dose of progressive rock with heavier elements. On the other hand, you could hear that the group was increasingly heading towards more intricate regions of symphonic rock. It is just a pity that no bonus tracks were added to the CD. Highly recommended! -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – Elo Omega (4CD box) - Hungarian GrundRecords Expanded Edition - LISTENprice: 380,00 PLN / 95,00 EUR
The original album, released in 1972, is probably the best title ever recorded by Omega and at the same time among the top five rock albums of Eastern Europe! Made in a silver-foil-covered box, the anniversary 4-disc box set from 2022 contains: CD1 – the remastered album Élő Omega (1972) with additional tracks. CD2 – the original raw mix of the album from 1972. CD3 – a new mix prepared in 2022. CD4 – an amateur live recording from Nyíregyháza from 1972. The price is not low, but the publisher certainly knew that this material is priceless to fans! A MUST! -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – Gammapolis (English Version, 1978) & Live At The Kisstadion (1979) (2CD) - German MIG Music Edition - LISTENprice: 120,00 PLN / 30,00 EUR
The two-disc release from the German label MIG Music combines two classic titles from the somewhat later period of Omega's activity. Released first in Germany in the English version, Gammapolis (1978), popular among fans, is an album full of extended compositions, striking synthesiser and mellotron parts and characteristic, melodic guitars, which create a monumental, cosmic sound, combining progressive rock with hard rock energy and catchy themes. Filling CD2, 'Live at The Kisstadion' (1979) was recorded during concerts in Budapest in September 1979 and shows the band in excellent live form, presenting extended versions of pieces, virtuoso instrumental parts and superb cooperation between the musicians. Highly recommended! -
OMEGA (HUN) (see also: Locomotiv GT / Neoton) - OMEGA – Omega (1973) + III (1974) (2CD) - GER MIG Music Edition - LISTENprice: 110,00 PLN / 27,50 EUR
A splendid, two-disc, German release from 2022 collecting two (Omega, 1973 and III, 1974) English-language albums made for the West European market and produced for Bellaphon by Peter Hauke - producer of Nektar and many other great progressive bands from Germany. Most of the compositions came originally from the Hungarian records 'Elo Omega' and '5'. Omega showed its characteristic combination of progressive rock, hard rock and melodic space rock, enriching the sound with rich parts for Hammond organ, mellotron and Moog synthesisers. A MUST! (JL)
