It was in 1984 when he was good, not now. (that is only my opinion).
If I have to pick one from that generation I would say Presser or Szörényi or Bródy, but not that jerksmiling smiley

Jerk! O, watch yer tounge! He sung out the Russians
when you probably wnet in diapers.
That man's unbelievaqble voice makes me achieve more on the bench press.
Neither you nor I know how he sounds now.

In my eyes & ears Presser is a clown. Bródi writes tremendous
& awesome music but I cant stan his voice. Who is Szörényi

But note I wrote Hobo first. It is a 1-10-list.
To each his own. You cant just cut out all that has been done before...
I would for certain have discovered the Stones today, with no past.

The 70s hard rock heroes of P Mobil laughin' at Keefed's choice of words.

It is even more disgusting that he sang songs like that and sent his messages to the secret police meanwhile - about other musicians who didn't have a clue what's going on with Gyuszi.Yes Gyuszi was a jerk that's it. Anyway I do not care about Vikidal that much.
There was a football match a couple of years ago, Hun vs Ger, Gyuszi got the chance to sing the Hun national anthem a capella. Surf the net and you will find the recording. That performance tells everything about Gyuszi...

I let you have that opinion and I understand it.
On the other hand, He, who is without all guild,
he may caste the first stone.
In the 80s he did more than anyone else alive for
creating resistance against the @#$%& occupants.
Reality tends to be complex.

But I do not put any opinions in here about politics or society
or not even about personal traits.

I just judge him as a vocalist.

We can talk about Poka Egon instead, if that makes you more comfortable.

Rock'n'roll is full of mean mistreaters; I even listen to Ike Turner at times.
