Never on Sunday

The bright side of quality Greek music, signified by the works of Manos Hadjidakis (who won an Oscar for "Never on Sunday"), Mikis Theodorakis (famous among others for his "Zorba the Greek" theme), Dionysis Savvopoulos (a Greek hybrid of Bob Dylan and Frank Zappa with strong traditional influences as well as rock). Pictured above is Melina Mercouri, star of Jules Dassin's film "Never on Sunday" on the cover of Life, circa 1966.
