You can see him on some vids comping for Gainsbourg...as for violin,he was an amazing player: I saw him play both ,violin and guitar couple of years before he left this world and his violin playing was outstanding...we used to chat sometimes
and I would say violin was his first choice...he'd study all the time (Aebersold methods) and yes, bop was his thing;yet he loved to pull out some pieces from classical repertoire(Bach) playing clubs;left me a tape of him playing both gt @ violin.Great Elek
Sa version de "Nuages" est extraordinaire, en rupture avec le style de Django, tout en le prolongeant, Bacsik est un météore ébloiuissant de la guitare pendant les sixties avant de disparaître dans un anonymat incopréhensible comme violoniste aux USA ... Grand respect...
João Gilberto - Samba de uma nota só.
I think that`s the original.

I didn't know him until I saw him with Gainsbourg, dam he is really "underrated".

He got really an incredible feeling as a guitare player...His own version of "nuages" (music of django) is free and amazing!
It's a shame that eleck is not more famous!

I am pretty sure this is the same guy who can play parker tunes and solos on the violin
He made a record on Flying dutchman records called Bird and diz
It is some of the most amazing jazz violin
ever recorded.
Out of print very rare

He was my dads best friend...
I could listen to him all night when he use to come to our house to jam some tunes with my dad...
R.I.P. Elek u always in my heart...
