	George Dalaras - Shining Nights
		Five of the songs were born after successive nights of interminable discussions as children of unanimous acceptance or fruitful dissent at Stamos Semsis' as the host on the piano and George Dalaras on the guitar interpreting George Pavrianos' lyrics.
		George Dalaras' old friend and partner Takis Bourmas, „who talks little and writes even less“, as George says, contributed his own Zeibekiko, rounding off the popular profile of the album which is „counterpoised“ by a „modern oldie“, a single, perky, sensitive twist by Lakis Papadopoulos.
		The songs on on this CD were orchestrated by Akis Katsoupakis, Antonis Vardis and, for one song, Stamos Semsis, with the valuable cooperation of the composers and, of course, George Dalaras and the excellent musicians, whose talent has contributed the most to the final aroma of the album.
