Torma - funny and forgotten synth from early 80s

Torma (meaning in English maybe: Horse-radish) was not punk, it was a funny one-man Hungarian new wave/synth stuff in early 80s. But Torma is a very forgotten band in Hungary, Torma didn't released albums or singles, but in 1983 the band appeared in "official" new wave sampler (the name of the sampler: 1.2..3... Start Új Hullám) with only Torma's "hit" song: "Dalolj!" (in English: "Sing!") and later, the band split up. But the band started again in early 90s and released 2 albums , made some concerts and split up again. Here's their first album from 1992 with original 80s Torma's songs! Good quality, early 80s Trio influenced music with funny and very very simple lyrics.
