Rough Guide to Rebetika music CDs From its initial emergence in the early 19th century, it remained a force in the country until the 1950s, and was revived again in the 1970s, and continues to enjoy prestige. This compilation focuses heavily on the genre's leading lights from the first-half of the 20th century, making for a fascinating historical document that's both entertaining and educational. There's plenty of arresting material, such as Yiorgos Katsaros' "Mes' Tou Manthou Ton Teke," or Marika Papagika's "Galata Manes.
