His music (and particularly his Zorba soundtrack :) was a prominent part of the soundtrack of my 60s teenage years.
And I recall trying to learn the sirtaki dance and perform with the consummate ease of the Greek mates of my Bro, with upper body held up tall - but continually fell over my own feet (even at my Bro's wedding)!!!   
Ah, talk about "Minties Moments" .....


Vale, Mikis.
Hopefully we will hear a resurgence of your wonderful music now.
