Greek rock
Rock and roll is an African American genre of music that spread around the world in the 1950s and 60s, entering Greece in the middle of the latter decade. Greek performers in the field include Jimi Quidd (born Jimmy Hatzidimitriou, later of The Dots and producer for Bad Brains), the Bob Dylan of Greece, Dionysios Savopoulos, who also plays rembetika and laika, and Pavlos Sidiropoulos, the most important representative of Greek folk-rock.
The Idol series of television shows has Greek counterparts in Fame Story and Super Idol, both of which feature rock musicians.
