In April 1979, Gidófalvy left the band for the newly formed Carthage, and Beatrice continued with a four-man lineup. The same year they were given an opportunity to record a full album in Radio 6’s studio. László B. Révész requested the use of Beatrice’s song for a film he directed about at-risk youth. The record was only released in 1993, after the regime change ( Megkerült hangszalag: Betiltott dalok, 1979) . Even though they did not have an album released, recordings of Beatrice songs were occasionally made. In 1980 the band performed Minek él az olyan , a song by Szabolcs Fényes and Iván Szenes, on the radio. In the movie about boxer László Papp, Pofonok völgye , Beatrice performed Mire megy itt a játék , a song written by János Bródy , which was also released as a single. They won a KISZ competition with their original song Nem nekem tanulsz . In July, they toured as the opening act of Omega and LGT, and were featured in the album Kisstadion ’80 . On August 23, 1980, the brand manager of the Hungarian Record Record Company, Péter Erdős announced on the Hajógyári Island in Óbuda to an audience of over 25 thousand youngsters three “rebellious” orchestras called “Black Lambs”: Beatrice, P. Mobil and Hobo Blues Band, with AE Bizottság being their opening act. (The three bands repeated the show three days later in Körmend). At the end of 1980, guitarist Lugosi left to join Dinamit, who were preparing for their second album. He was replaced by Csaba Bogdán, then the lineup was completed with József Vedres (guitarist) and Laszlo Waszlavik (keyboardist) – a documentation of this period is the double CD Betiltott dalok II./1981 (Tudományos Rockizmus), released in 2013, which contained 150 minutes of previously unreleased recordings.
