Genre: Greek Folk Songs, Rebetika, Bouzouki Yiannis Papaioannou was (together with Markos Vamvakaris and Vasilis Tsitsanis), one of the great pioneers of this special kind of greek folk songs called "Rebetika". He composed hundreds of legendary songs that remained timeless among the treasures of the Greek musical pantheon. This very rare 4CD set, contains original recordings from 1930's of great Papaioannou's songs, digitally remastered. In the first 3 CDs you will find genuine interpretations with many rebetiko legends of the 30's, while the 4th is a live recording with Yiannis Papaioanou from the music hall he performed. The sound quality is the best possible (for recordings of 30's). An invaluable and touching collector's item.
