Safari

Bela in Sweden excellently managed the P.S. Band, the owner of Scabri Records, fell in love with the material and offered a contract on several terms: first, they had to choose a name that sounded good internationally, it became Safari. The other condition proved to be a tougher nut: only Gyula Papp, Bela Svärdmark and Miklós Varga could form the membership under the artist names Julio Pappa, Bela Stephan S and Miki Varga, and behind them the publisher wanted to contract the most professional Swedish session musicians - Janne Schaffer, Christian Veltman and Magnus Persson. With a sore heart, they said goodbye to the other members of the P.S. Band, but recordings of Safari’s album soon began in Göteborg. Members: Julio Pappa, Bela Stephan S and Miki Varga.
