[78-L] Question about "O Gero Amerikanos"

[Steve Shapiro]

Since the booklet for Folk Music in America - Vol. 6  Songs of Migration & Immigration says this was recorded in Athens in the mid-1930s and this was issued in the U.S. on RCA's Orthophonic, this was likely also issued in Greece on Greek HMV.

If the Greek HMV files from this period still survive, or if there is a discography from Greece of such records, you should be able to find more information.  Perhaps there is a book or magazine article, likely in Greek, on Dimitris Perdicopoulos.  Try your local public or university library for help in a search.  You can also search Greek newspapers from Greece and the U.S. from this period.  You are likely to turn up interesting information on other subjects as well./steve
