Rambler is an album by Hungarian guitarist Gábor Szabó featuring performances recorded in 1973 and released on the CTI label.

Reception

The Allmusic review states "For what would be Szabo's last significant recording, the Hungarian guitarist performs an obscurity and five of bassist Melz's originals... Although the individual melodies are not that memorable (none caught on), Gabor Szabo's distinctive sound and logical improvisations make this an album worth searching for".
