  • It's great to see the young Greek soul alive and not brainwashed with crap. Bravo sou.

  • The "Outsider" segments are an outstanding contribution to those seeking to see and learn the history of the Rebetika! My friend, thank you for sharing this film in cyberspace. A treasure for those who wish to remember and for future generations who love this music. The interviews with Bakalis, Stelios Vamvakaris,and Genitsaris are gems!!

    Bravo levendi, na eisai kala!!!!

  • The date is 1984.

  • Whats the name of the VERY First opening song?

  • Thanks for this great upload!! Much appreciated.

    Music is one, let's keep politics out of it.

  • Greeting from Istanbul. These sounds thouches my soul......

  • Rembetiko is influenced by oriental music such as Turkish which is actually Arabic and Persian. The roots are ancient Greek and heavily influenced by the byzantine music even before the Turkish.

  • @DrummArt someone that gets it (thats the beauty of music)

  • 600 xronia stugnis tourkokratias kai alla 200 varvaris filovasilikis ellinokratias gennise to rempetiko tragoudi apo katatregmenous prosfuges stis oxthes tou aigaiou

  • Shit cities, shit culture, shit economy, and shit music.

    But it's also good natured, organized, productive, and healthy.

  • it makes me really sad to see people argue in 2010 about these things..

    why do we have to take credits if an instrument or melody was discovered in one's country?

    I wonder ... I am Greek, and i play african drums for some years now.. so, if I compose a song, using african instruments and influences, will it be a greek song or an african one? AND WILL IT EVER REALLY MATTER?

    i think we should ALL read our history, respect our ancestors, and apreciate the lessons learned.

    *Music UNITES people*

  • is there a way i can get this documentry for a retreat.
