Road to Rembetika
Language: English
Published by Denise Harvey (Publisher), 2006
ISBN 10: 9607120078 ISBN 13: 9789607120076
Seller: Denise Harvey (Publisher), Limni, EVIA, Greece
Seller rating 2 out of 5 stars
Soft cover. Condition: New. No Jacket. 4th Edition. with flaps, 190 pages, with flaps, printed 2013. The rembetika, songs that were sung in the poor quarters of Smyrna, Istanbul and the ports of Greece in the late nineteenth century, and became the popular bouzouki music of the 1930s to 1950s, have many parallels with American blues. Like the blues, the rembetika were the music of outsiders, who developed their own slang and their own forms of expression. Road to Rembetika was the first book in English to attempt a general survey of the world of the 'rembetes' who smoked hashish and danced the passionate, introspective 'zebekiko' to release their emotions. An enthusiastic introduction to the subject, it was written by an Australia musician and writer who first came to Greece in 1965 and who has continued to perform and write about Greek music ever since. Gail Holst describes her own initiation into the rembetika, outlines its historical and sociological background, its musical characteristics and instrumentation. The second part of the book is a collection of rembetika songs translated into English. The text is illustrated with photographs of the period, musical examples and original manuscripts of the songs. This classic book, now in its 10th printing, has been revised and updated by the author, and retypeset.

My Father and the Silver King
Seller: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Ambrose Erswell ran away from home in London's East End when he was seven years old, lived on the streets and joined a gang of child pickpockets. At nine he signed on as a "ship's boy" on a clipper ship sailing to South America - an experience so grim he vowed never to go to sea again. In a bicycle shop, where he found a job, he saw his first automobile. It was the beginning of a lifelong passion for cars. By twelve years of age he'd become a chauffeur. When he saw The Silver King, a melodrama in which the wronged hero is redeemed after making a fortune in a silvermine in South America, he decided that his life must follow a similar trajectory. Like the hero of the play, this cockney lad, who would eventually (in his mid-fifties) become the author's father, left England and made a fortune in an unlikely business in Australia. The author traces her attraction to the music of the Piraeus underworld and the men who sang the rembetika to her father and to the Music Hall songs she was raised on.
