Great stuff ! On holiday in Crete some years ago I asked the host/bouzouki player at the nearest taverna about Rembetika - I heard about it from Ann and Ken at Red Lick Records - he was amaxed that anybody from England had heard about it and changed his repertoire that night, regardless of tourist requests, "Everything now is from the 20s and 30s" he yelled. Great night. On a trip further up the coast I went into a Cd shop and made enquiries. The pretty shop asistant seemed unsure so I asked for hashish smoking music and she actually reached under the counter and sold me two cd collections. After reading this I shall be playing them again. Great thread and good radio programme. Hopa !!
