George Dalaras’s debut, ‘Rempetika tis katoxis’, does not fit easily into one genre. Lead single “Saltadores” and “Epidromh Sto Peiraia” start with near-whispers before kicking into giddily catchy, fuzz box-driven hollered hooks. This compilation contains all of the biggest hits by George Dalaras. Such great and happy songs.
The beautiful sound of this track makes you want to close your eyes and sway away with the music. I like the idea behind Nanai Glyko To Boli. Vocals of George Dalaras in Mayrogorites really capture me and are set perfectly to the rhythm. Xaidari is one of the best records ever. Enas Leben is an upbeat song with a constant snare hit. Still going through Rempetika tis katoxis and coming to appreciate Kane Ligaki Ypomonh more and more with every listen. Stelios Kardaras is possibly the most mysterious and inexplicable track George Dalaras ever produced. Aderfos Ton Aderfo is flawed, nonetheless pretty good song. No George Dalaras song has come close to capturing my attention as Xtizoyn Kai Gkremizoyn Kastra did. Kapoia Mana Anastenazei is the cool blend of moody yet optimistic tunes. Ths Koinwn is a great opener for Rempetika tis katoxis.
