October 22th | Smyrneika 'B-side'
'Smyrneika' are songs that were recorded in the early parts of the 20th century in Istanbul or Smyrni from Greeks living there based mainly on 'Makams' (modal music). B-side, as on old cassettes, is the “Secondary” … unlikely to become “hit records” and not “the focus of promotional efforts”.
