More Than A Greek Treasure, July 4, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Live & Unplugged (Audio CD)
When you try to classify Dalaras as a Greek Voice or a Greek Spirit or a Greek Treasure, you miss the most important thing. The man can sing like no one else. If you know the language, you can appreciate the poetry, and if you dont, you cant help but marvel at the voice. Like others from around the world, like Mercedes Sosa for example, if George Dalaras sang in English, he'd have been deified by now. On this recording, the band is as tight as can be, whether it is bouzoukee or saxaphone. The arrangements flow like water; and Dalaras takes you by the hand with a voice, and a delivery that you just wont find anywhere else. A wonderful collection.

Terrific!!, September 1, 1999
This review is from: Live & Unplugged (Audio CD)
I've had this CD over a year now and it's been a favorite of my family. Along with Haris Alexiou, George Dalaras really conveys the spirit of what is so wonderful about Greek music. So get this CD, and site down with a glass of wine (or ouzo, if you're adventurous) and let the music take you away!

excelent, August 12, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Live & Unplugged (Audio CD)
His music combines sadness, peace, hope and melancholy. You can feel the typical spirit of Greece in his voice. A wonderful example of the true Levantin music (rembetico).

Voice of Fire, December 3, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Live & Unplugged (Audio CD)
A glorious live recording. Doesn't matter if you don't understand Greek. Listen to the spirit of a nation, a voice like the sea, the passion, the pain, the joy. This CD is never far from my player. The only thing better is actually being at a Dalaras concert (and if you ever get the chance, go).

The True Greek Voice, March 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Live & Unplugged (Audio CD)
I agree with the previous reviewer (Doors12077)with his analogy of Dalaras. He has the spirit of Greece in him. This cd is a mixture of the Greek culture, his passion, and musical talent. He IS a national treasure in Greece! His expressive gift for music is exhibited here. A wonderful example of the true Greek voice.

Masterful, January 23, 1999
This review is from: Live & Unplugged (Audio CD)
This is greek music at its peak. No other greek artist performs, sings, creates, and expresses the greek spirit like George Dalaras. He is a national treasure. His pathos, and genuine flow of talent is definetly exhibited in this wonderful cd.
