Louis Kabok

Hungarian bassist - born Kabók Lajos - played with Gábor Szabó in 1956 at the Astoria Hotel in Budapest. Moved to the USA at around the same time as Szabó (in the aftermath of the Hungarian revolution of 1956), where he was primarily a classical musician on the West coast. He was part of Szabó's first American-based band, Three Strings, formed short after their arrival. Szabó continued to work with Kabók in the sixties.
