i fucking love this song!!!!! when im happy, when im sad, when im blah, i put it on and just cheese out either with a smile or a tear... either way, i calms me...
this song is a greek rempetiko and it was first played back in the late '20s !! There were a great number of orchestras and they all got the composition by smoking jaming..
Nikos Roumbanis changed the tone in the early 40's and claimed to have written the tune. Since no one ever said otherwise he is still considered the composer.
The song has known numerous versions and became widely know after being icluded in the Pulp Fiction soundtrack.
this is totally turkish.because misirli (misirlou) means egyptian in turkish .

My guess is the early 1970's? There was a lot of musical experimentation then. Good clip!
