Hungarian rock has been a part of the popular music of Hungary since the early 1960s. The first major bands were Illés, Metró and Omega. At the time, rock was not approved of by the Hungarian Communist authorities. In the 1970s, the Communists cracked down on rock, and Illés was banned from recording. Some members of the other bands formed a supergroup called Locomotiv GT, while the band Omega became very popular in Germany.

Locomotiv GT was a Hungarian progressive rock band formed in 1971. During their heyday they were one of Hungary's most popular rock bands. The band broke up in 2016 after the death of longtime singer/bassist Tamás Somló.
Compared to other Hungarian music albums of the time, the sound of Locomotiv GT was heavier, and with the exception of "Ezüst nyár", the album lacked so-called hits. That was the result of a conscious decision made by the group; they intended to play high-quality rock music resembling more to that of made by English and American groups. Unlike albums released by LGT in the second half of the 1970s, the instrumentation of Locomotiv GT is somewhat simple, the saxophone being the only "exotic" instrument. The music is built around the virtuoso guitar playing of Barta, and the masterful organ playing of Presser; in addition, Frenreisz plays his bass more powerfully than most of his Hungarian peers, and the drumming of Laux is also worth to mention. The style of the songs does not really fit in with the typical Hungarian pop music of the time; that is, it is more mature, although it cannot be called progressive rock in its traditional sense. Improvisation, showing the skills of the musicians, was employed more frequently in songs, such as "A Napba öltözött lány", "A tengelykezű félember", and "Hej, én szólok hozzád". The influence of American blues-rock and jazz are also evident. Locomotiv GT recorded the album before they played any live concerts together. Gábor Presser later stated that the album was a getting to know each other affair, and that LGT became a real band only by the time they recorded their following album, Ringasd el magad. The lyrics were written by Anna Adamis, who provided the lyrics to most Omega songs between 1968 and 1970.

Its instrumentation was worked out and rehearsed in Budapest, the album was recorded at MHV Studios also in the Hungarian capital, whereas the running order was put together by the band at a restaurant on Oxford Street, London. Although the style of the band was basically the same, the sound and stylistic diversity of the songs show a considerable progress. While on Locomotiv GT they used electric instruments almost exclusively, the instrumentation of Ringasd el magad is much more complex.
Bummm! is Hungarian rock band Locomotiv GT's third studio album and was released in 1973. It was their first album with singer and bassist Tamás Somló and their last album with guitarist Tamás Barta before he left the band. Because Somló was only learning the bass guitar when he joined the band, most of the bass on the album was recorded by Barta. The album was recorded and released in 1973. Not long after its release, the album was banned due to Barta's immigration to the USA, which was illegal at the time. The album was re-released in 1982 but without its original cover.
