Description
-Artist / Group: The Olympians
-Mini bio: Popular Greek act who date back to the mid-1960's. After 1960, the first modern Greek rock n' roll bands began to appear including Forminx, who introduced the legendary yianka, set off a band-frenzy with young people from every neighbourhood creating their own band and changing their guitar sounds to electric. The Idols, The Juniors and The Charms follow using English, and later on Greek lyrics. The first to implement Greek lyrics into their songs were The Olympians.
-This recording is likely from the early 1970's and although credited to The Olympians, there is only one male singer, so we asume that the other group members played the instruments.
-Titles: We cannot translate the Greek letters into English.
-Side one is a mid-tempo rocker with soaring vocals from the lead singer and good musical accompaniment from The Olympians including some excellent guitar work including a sizzling solo, percolating bass, drums and keyboards. Sung in Greek.
-Side two is another mid-tempo rocker with strummed guitar, percolating bass and drums, excellent vocals from the male lead vocalist and good organ throughout with a mini-solo on the fadeout. Sung in Greek.

Record grading:
(M) Mint: We don't use this grade as no record is perfect, even SS records can have tiny flaws.
(SS) Still sealed: Still sealed in the factory shrink wrap.
(M-) Mint minus: A nearly perfect record. The record will show no obvious signs of wear. Original finish intact. Picture sleeves should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling.
(VG+) Very good plus: The record will show some signs that it was played or otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Record surfaces may show some slight signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or light scratches. Picture sleeves may have some slight ring wear, lightly turned up corners, or a small seam split.
(VG) Very good: Many of the defects found in a VG+ record or sleeve will be more pronounced in a VG record or picture sleeve. Groove wear may be noticeable, the record may have light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound, but the foreign noises will be less prominent than the music. Picture sleeves may have quite prominent ring wear. Creases, folds, seam splits and tears will be more obvious and may appear on all three sides, and there may be writing as well.
(VG-) Very good minus: Foreign noises may be about as prominent as the music. The record still plays through without skipping. The picture sleeve will have more significant seam splits, perhaps to the point where they were taped closed, and highly obvious ring wear and heavier writing. Can serve as a filler until a better one comes along.
(G) Good: We seldom offer a good record for sale unless it is particularily rare for the following reasons: Foreign noises are louder than the recorded music and listening can be distracted by the noise. May or may not play through without skipping, but should be so noted. Picture sleeves are so badly seam split that they may not be able to contain the record within.Tears, folds, writing and ring wear may be overwheming.
