This album includes two song cycles: "The song of the dead brother" (tracks 1-9) with Grigoris Bithikotsis and "Deserters", written on poetry of Yiannis Theodorakis, with the composer himself singing. We could say that the first cycle is where Theodorakis embraces the "zeimbekiko" dance, since 5 out of 9 songs are among the best zeimbekika ever composed. Greeks adored these songs and they sing and dance them till today. Excellent bouzouki played by two virtuoso and of course Grigoris Bithikotsis in his zenith. Very interesting is the listening of young Mikis Theodorakis (37 yo), singing the 4 last songs, the "Deserters" cycle. He never reclaimed a singer's voice, but you can feel his soul in it. After all, it is his beloved brother's poetry.

Like the rest of America, Hollywood was ripe for revolution in the late sixties. Cinema attendance was down; what had once worked seemed broken. Enter Bob Rafelson, Bert Schneider, and Steve Blauner, who knew that what Hollywood needed was new audiences—namely, young people—and that meant cultivating new talent and new ideas. Fueled by money from their invention of the superstar TV pop group the Monkees, they set off on a film-industry journey that would lead them to form BBS Productions, a company that was also a community. The innovative films produced by this team between 1968 and 1972 are collected in this box set—works that now range from the iconic (Easy Rider, Five Easy Pieces, The Last Picture Show) to the acclaimed (The King of Marvin Gardens) to the obscure (Head; Drive, He Said; A Safe Place), all created within the studio system but lifted right out of the countercultural id.
