I chanced on this CD in a charity shop in Craignure on Mull a number of years ago while waiting for the Oban ferry. I was attracted by Kronos though they only play on two or three tracks. Fifty pence I recall. Bargain and a half.

At the weekend I heard the song 'Toubou Toubou Za', a Greek nonsense song that was released in the seventies by actor, Kostas Voustas. It was written as a subverted attack on the Greek Junta of the time and apparently became a huge hit in Greece.
Here's the song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59VxLVBgfI0
However it clearly had some sort of effect - here's a film with the song encouraging rebellion - thought it was idiosyncratic enough for a Monday in late September.
Lots of bouzoukis, as you might expect.Comment

Wonderful array of percussive sounds as the Silkroad Ensemble accompany Rhiannon Giddens on 'Swannanoa Tunnel / Steel-Driving Man'. Maybe not overly idiosyncratic for a Monday but terrific nonetheless.

Here's the Poet Laureate with his band , LYR and 'Sketch for Christ’s Triumphal Entry into Eldon Street', which I believe is in Barnsley
- made me want to visit Barnsley, I have to say.
I heard it on an excellent BBC Radio 6 Music 'Freakzone special' which featured a couple of hours of excellent spoken word tracks. The programme still has a week or so to run on Sounds - worth checking out:
Much of it is idiosyncratic, you will be pleased to hear.
