Mikis Theodorakis ...

... once told me "if I were 20 years younger I would have become a rock musician".

With this sentence in my ear, I only recorded all songs with an electric guitar, a 53 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop.

It is very difficult to choose songs from the huge fund of his work. It is significant that I always go back to three cycles when searching because they make me emotionally very agitated:
"Ta Lyrica" (1976) (which in the broadest affect my own story or that of my parents), "Ilios kai Chronos" (1967) and "Lipotaktes" (1952-57).

I thank my brother Thanasis for wonderfully supporting me vocally, I thank Wolfgang Loos for the fantastic mix, Michael Rodach for his mental support, Angelika for her whistling skills in "Phaedra" and most of all I thank you, Mikis, for your songs and the time I spent with you.
