Gabor Szabo is a Jazz artist from Hungary.

Szabó Gábor István (8 March 1936 – 26 February 1982), better known as Gábor Szabó, was a Hungarian jazz guitarist, famous for mixing jazz, pop-rock and his native Hungarian music. Szabó was born in Budapest and began playing guitar at the age of 14, inspired by jazz music on the Voice of America broadcasts. He escaped Hungary and moved to the United States in 1956, a year of attempted revolt against Soviet-dominated Communist rule, and attended the Berklee School of Music in Boston. .
