At the beginning of the 1980s, there is a musical enrichment in the Greek scene as more and more bands flourish, despite the extensive censorship on forms of art that in the later years gradually stopped.
One example of this era is that of Mousikes Taxiarhies (Greek for Musical Brigades) with frontman Tzimis Panousis. The lyrical content of the band for the time was considered to vary from humorous and lightly satirical to all-out criticizing towards the political life of Greece - nevertheless the band played music with rich musical content; a mixture of many influences besides rock such as reggae and funk.
Jimis Panousis was the vocalist and main composer of the group.
Their first (unofficial) album was 'Disco Tsoutsouni' (Disco Weenie) released in 1980. It was an illegally published tape, many songs of which were later rerecorded for the band's official debut, their eponymous album in 1982. The band went under the alias 'Alamana's Bridge' to make a guest appearance with two songs in the compilation album 'Made in Greece'.
In 1986, Mousikes Taxiarhies was disbanded and Panousis
went solo. (tzimakos.gr)
