Yep, that CD twofer is fine!

Picked my CD up for a couple of bucks at that mega-brilliant Fantasy sale a few years ago, thanks to our Mr Weizen :party:

LYRA%20LYS%201004.gif

Traditional Folksongs & Dances of Greek (Lyra mono). I found this sealed album, apparently from the 1960's, today, and feel like I won the lottery, in a small way. This could have been a tacky "tourist" record, but it's beautiful - the real deal. Among the twelve tracks, there are a couple of excellent vocals by Irene Konitopoulos, but the real gems are the three tracks by the great Greek clarinetist Tassos Chalkias. I love the clarinet tradition of the northeast Mediterranean - Greece, Turkey, Romania, Bulgaria, etc., and these tracks are primo examples of that tradition.
