Szabo's best album stirs his usual cheeseball exoticism into a creamy fervor. Though his interest in teen schmaltz made this record unacceptable to jazz snobs upon issue, it's swank arrangements & pristine production (by none other than Rudy Van Gelder) make for a shag that today's DJs and music nerds alike can sink deep into. 'In Search of Nirvana' is a dead ringer for Twink's fuzz blister-maker 'Ten Thousand Words in a Cardboard Box'. You can also hear Gabor get all his thumbs tangled in sitar strings (which he admitted he'd never played before) on his cover of 'Paint it Black'. Tracklisting: Walking on Nails, Mizrab, Search for Nirvana, Krishna, Raga Doll, Comin Back, Paint it Black, Sophisticated Wheels, Ravi, Caravan, Summertime.
