Savvopoulos Long Play

Season 1 Episode 3: O Ballos kai to Vromiko Psomi

The third episode covers the years of feverish creativity 1971-72, where Savvopoulos plays first at Rodeo and then at Kyttaros on Acharnon Street and records his most influential albums, perhaps for the development of Greek music. He confides for the first time about the sources of his inspiration, the paths through which legendary songs were born, such as "Ballos", "Zeibekiko" or "Mavri Thalassa". The performances, especially at Kyttaros, are a major artistic and social-political event in Athens at the time. Kyttaro becomes the first contemporary music scene in Athens with this unique program that began with Jimmy the Tiger, continued with Epirus clarinet and then the music was combined with the performances of Karagiozis by Evgenios Spatharis and the film scenes of Lakis Papastathis. Domna Samiou organized the Monday nights, while on Tuesdays, Elias Petropoulos presented the composers of rebetiko.
