Help in Identifying a Greek rembetiko medley


Hello all,

I am trying to identify the singer/album of this greek medley and trying to get a better quality recording of it and the rest of the live concert. This is from my wife's family tape from when they lived in Armenia..

Thank you in advance, and I apologize for the intro video prior to the track playing

hi armen -

the song is called 'siko pano katse kato', and the singer might be someone called fillipos nikolaou...

here is a more contemporary version with panos gavalas -

i don't think this song can be labeled as rembetiko - by any stretch of the imagination! enjoy...

Thank you very much, I think you're right the voices do seem to match. In an effort to educate myself more on the Greek traditions, please expand on you mean when you said this is not rembetika? I would like to learn more about the distinctions..thank you again for your help..if anyone has a better quality recording of this please email me armensevag@hotmail.com

is it just me or is this song a medley of a bunch of different songs...i dont understand greek but there seem to be a lot of different choruses that all sound different rather than repetition. btw there is a video of the philly kef band playing siko pano katse kato. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7Yu8mR5I-s
