The band is often compared to the Beatles as regards the time period of its activity, its artistic and cultural influence, and continuing popularity.\n\nThe band's name was originally taken from the family name of Lajos Illés, one of the members. Later however, the band chose as its logo a chariot in the form of musical notes, drawn by two horses, riding over the name \"Illés\" and the sun. This logo deliberately references the chariot of the prophet Elijah (Illés in Hungarian) in the Old Testament, in which he was said to have been taken to Heaven.\n\nIllés was founded in 1960, but did not gain wider popularity outside of students clubs until 1963. This was the time the Hungarian language programs of Radio Luxemburg, broadcast illegally to Hungary, started to influence Hungarian youth culture.\n\nThey were the first wildly popular band of the \"new\" beat music. Their song Még fáj minden csók (Every kiss still hurts) caused quite a scandal in 1966 because of Levente Szörényi's \"squeaking\" singing style. https://tinyurl.com/2tdvchzd", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }{ "id": 3556011, "uri": "
