Linda's solo album "ZÖLD"/"GREEN" was very popular during the 80s. She later performed a widely successful career as an actress starring as a karate-girl in hungarian TV shows


Apart from the monthly RÉGISÉGVÁSÁR, Miskolc is also a city with lots of antiquities shops. You may find, for example, the old Kockás series of hungarian comics triple cheaper price compared to those pretended mighty rare sold at the Budapest comikons, or 40 years old hungarian cigarette packs - unique design and... unique taste I might say.
.
The large vinyl collections for sale offer a great portrayal on hungarian pop-culture. Original cover designs were made at high-level and could compete with the western specialized masters of album cover art. Most notable could be probably Harmati András and Kemény György, both graficians. Their work for cover albums of Locomotiv GT shows a fine esthetic taste and sense for mass culture icon production. Locomotiv GT is a popular hungarian hard-rock band of the 70s and 80s. Their song "Boldog Vagyok"/"I am Happy" is a refferential hit, while collaboration features with artists like Jack Bruce proves veritable international value.
