Thread Name: New video from George Papavgeris
Subject: RE: New video from George Papavgeris
I loved Tsamiko. It reminded me of the time a few years ago when the late George Foundas,who was Greece's John Gielgud, and must have been around 80 at the time, was on holiday with friends on Kalymnos and came into the taverna where we usually eat and "sing". Thee was a larger than usual crowd, many who had heard he was there and just wanted to see him. As the evening progressed from singing to dancing he stood up and did a very slow stately solo dance. It was one of those "I was there" moments.
