I got this ,along with many other interesting musics from Epirus ,very recently from a friend himself from Zagori the cultural heart of the area, who is into releasing old material from family recordings (as he explained to me, the family that was inviting and paying the musicians for the celebrations , in many cases was also recording during them and kept the tapes) through his newborn homemade label.
Details in the future.
(and of course he was showered with wishes and African goodies)
Sooo Takoutsia with Filippos Rountas from Simon Karas archive is accompanied with the best of recommendations.
If you are familiar with Takousia from the good Inedit recording you will easily understand that this is the real thing.
here is a nice place to share it.
