5.0 out of 5 stars
The sound of the Balkan region,
By Constantinos V. "Constantinos V." (Houston, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Thessaloniki - Yannena with Two Canvas Shoes (Audio CD)
This is an excellent album that blends the Slavian-gipsy culture with the Greek culture. It has fast paced songs such as the my name is Popie (my two year-old son jumps up and down when he listens to it), and night; as well as slower ones such as the Song Dedicated To Eleni F (I love the vocals on this song they have an influence from the rembetiko styl of music) and the Don't Give Up Ana . Dalaras is a perfectionist in anything he does and this album is rendered in a unique masterful way. A good album to introduce you to a different kind of music.

Balkan mystery,
By A Customer
This review is from: Thessaloniki - Yannena with Two Canvas Shoes (Audio CD)
Balkan music is not that common. But it is really amazing! Combined with the perfect voice of George Dalaras, it's worth buying it!

An Explosive Collaboration of Greek and Balkan Sound,
By maria spetsaris (Storrs, CT United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Thessaloniki Giannena Me Dio (Audio CD)
This is a journey through heart pumping sound. The combination of Dallaras' voice, which captivates, with the energy of brass sound is uplifting and exhilarating. You'll find yourself moving and shaking, even if you know nothing about Greek or Balkan music. Let the rhythm of this c.d. take you on an energizing ride and feel the passion Dallaras and Bregovic give to their music!

Yorgos & Goran @ their best! Croatian or Serbian speaking folks might consider listening to the original rendition of Arsen Dedic's "Don't Give Up Ana" (i.e., "Ne daj se Ines") by Rade Serbedzija....

Thessaloniki-Yannena,
By Beethoven Dhara (Manchester, NH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Thessaloniki - Yannena with Two Canvas Shoes (Audio CD)
Goran Bregovic and George Dalaras combine their musical talents to produce this fast paced yet smooth album. Even if you do not understand the lyrics, you will appreciate the music.

This wasn't for me,
By Julius the Greek "Julius" (Long Beach, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Thessaloniki Giannena Me Dio (Audio CD)
When purchasing recodings made by Greek artists, I've always felt that I couldn't go wrong by purchasing anything produced by Dalaras. This CD proved me wrong. While I concede that there are many Dalaras fans out there who will love this CD, those looking for a recording in line with Dalaras' past work will be disappointed. This is a definate departure from anything Dalaras has done in the past. If you are looking for a rembetiko, or laiko tragoudi, look elsewhere, you won't find it on this CD. I've tried giving this CD away, but everyone keeps giving it back.
