Drina March ~ The Spotnicks ~ 1966

The glorious melody of this extract is inspired by the Serbian patriotic march: "Marš na Drinu" ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPUHLzEwook&feature=related ) that was composed by Stanislav Binički.
Nonetheless, it's fate was to becοme a catchy tune of the sixties, as many rock instrumental bands (some of them can someone enjoy in the related videos) adapted it to a modern sound!
Here someone can enjoy a great version of the march, by the magnificent "Spotnicks", from Sweden (as frazlpolka kindly informed me).

The great Greek actor Thanasis Veggos is exhilarating as he is trying to find his sister (Nitsa Marouda) in a night club, where she's dancing together with her boyfriend (Petros Pantazis)... From the extract of this film by 1966 someone can observe the then austere morals of the Greek society that regarded with low reputation the youth that frequented in night clubs...
