Guest Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 (edited) Lady B and myself have just returned from a holiday in Greece ( our first tine there ) , and despite being there to relax , I was - as wherever I go - always on the look out when in stores , shops etc , to see if there were any tunes , but sadly nothing was seen or found . My question is , what NS aligned - if any - records gained release in Greece ? Malc Burton Edited August 12, 2009 by Malc Burton
Ion T Posted August 12, 2009 Posted August 12, 2009 I consider myself the most important Greek (well half anyway) issue to have emerged on the Northern scene.... All best Ion (Ioannis Tsakalis)

All best Ion (Ioannis Tsakalis) I have nothing as important as Ion. although I do have a scar on my shin from playing football after an all-nighter with Ion and a motley crue. I do also have a Ben E King - Can't Break The News on Greek atlantic which is pretty neat, any idea of a value folks? As well as some common Atlantic stuff, Aretha, Arthur Conley etc.

Malc Burton Found this on you tube RE;Incredible instrumental by Belgian studio ensemble - like Ramsey Lewis or Srgio Mendes on speed playing a version of Riders on the storm. Played this one to death for "the floor" a few years ago and still cannot get tired of it.

Ken my dear chap - that is the best review I have ever read for a record : as you state , it sums up the tune up perfectly . As for " Voltaire Pier " , was that where the noted French Enlightenment writer , essayist , and philosopher François - Marie Arouet ( 21 November 1694 30 May 1778 ) - better known by the pen name of Voltaire - went to compose his writings in defence of civil liberties , freedom of religion and free trade ?
