Gábor Füsti Balogh (1958–1988) was a prominent Hungarian jazz pianist and composer who learned the piano on his own, studying at the Béla Bartók Conservatory for only six months and briefly under Béla Szakcsi Lakatos. His bands, such as Kis Rákfogó and Füsti Balogh Ensemble, greatly promoted jazz-rock and modern mainstream jazz in Hungary. Prize-winning double bassist János Egri, a member of Füsti's Crazy Trio, founded a quintet in 2022 to pay tribute to his work. The band brings together the best musicians from three generations of Hungarian jazz to preserve and promote the legacy of Füsti. In their concerts, they perform original compositions inspired by the jazz legend's music, and breathe new life into his works. Their first album, The Big Things (Tom-Tom Records, 2024), with guest appearance by Tony Lakatos, features many of the compositions recorded by Füsti for his 1981 album Cream, in the spirit of the present day.
