Beatrice (band)
Beatrice (or simply Ricse, sometimes referred to as ''Nagy Feró és a Beatrice'' or ''Nagyferó és a Beatrice'') is a Hungarian rock band. It was founded in 1969 as a women's band, and played mostly cover songs. In 1971, Nagy Feró joined the band as a frontman. In the following years, the members were gradually replaced, and from 1974 they began to write their own songs in the then popular glam rock style. In order to get a record deal the band became oriented towards disco music from 1976. The group disbanded in 1977, and in the following year, Beatrice was reunited as a rock band by Nagy Feró with bassist Miklóska Lajos, guitarist Lugosi László, keyboardist Gidófalvy Attila, and drummer Donászy Tibor, and started playing rock in a similar style to AC/DC. At this time they wrote songs that have since become classics, about the hopelessness of everyday life, such as ''Jericho'', the ''Metropolitan Wolf'', and the ''Angel Land''.

He acted in several films in Weimar Germany, before arriving in New Orleans as a seaman on a merchant ship, then making his way north to New York City and Ellis Island.
