Vicky Moscholiou

Viky Moscholiou, 1943 - 2005

As a nationalistic gesture, my boss gave me this CD after catching me listening to Emperor. Embarrassing the both of us -- I swear it improves my work performance, swear -- he's been on a bender to 'improve' my musical tastes.

Think Bebel Gilberto, Edith Piaf and feta cheese -- Vicky Moscholiou is possibly Greek's most popular female singers. I couldn't find much information about her. Married a star soccer player; had two kids; got divorced; worked with some Greek composers I've never heard of nor can I pronounce their names. However, I do know that she put her mark on an entire musical era and still lives alive in the hearts of many lovably pertinacious Greeks... my boss.

Her sound is 60s smooth but in that weird Greek gypsy way. When you listen, just think of sailing along under the velvety blue skies with the wind as your blithe guide as you cruise smoothly through the deep open trident waters. Oh, and you probably have greek gods/goddesses passionately rubbing you down with some olive oil.
