Albums by Manolis Angelopoulos
Artist Biography
Born of Roma (gypsy) heritage, Manolis Angelopoulos struggled against bigotry for most of his career. Although his recordings were embraced by the Roma community, Angelopoulos had difficulty reaching a larger audience. Angelopoulos' influence began to spread throughout Greece following his death in 1988. Two years later, Fiesta released three volumes of self-titled albums that reprised his early recordings. On the tenth anniversary of his death in 1998, an entire issue of Nitro magazine was devoted to him and a nationally broadcast television show honored his contributions to Greek music. ~ Craig Harris
