I got the song from iTunes. It was on a collection of Gypsy music from Istanbul 1920s-30s. Several good tunes on the album. Sorry I don't remember exact name but I think you can find it by search iTunes.

The term "karsilamas" comes from the Turkish word "karsilama" meaning "face to face greeting" and is often used as a slang word designating the pickpocket's method of knocking against someone to steal his wallet. The Greek name of the dance is Antikristos Makedonikos, meaning "face to face dance from Macedonia."
The dance was popular around Constantinople (now İstanbul, Turkey) during Byzantine times. Originally a warlike dance, the Turks adopted it when they conquered the area.
If they ever remake, "From Russia With Love"; you would be perfect in the "gypsy"
camp scene. Very good!!! Full of feeling!
Really liked your dress.
