Re: Demis Roussos

The Greek singer Demis Roussos has died at the age of 69.
He was well known for his kaftans and his quavering voice but was very popular and sold a lot of records back in the day.

Re: Demis Roussos

I won a Demis LP on the radio many years ago, wasn't sure what to do with it, then thought of my local cleaners, owned by Greeks, so popped in there - they were pleased to take it .........
He seemed nice enough ........

Re: Demis Roussos

I can't hear that name without thinking 'Abigails Party' with Alison Steadman and squirming with embarrassment

Re: Demis Roussos

I liked Demis Roussos but I didnīt realise he was only 69, I thought he was older than that.

Re: Demis Roussos

He was my mum's favourite, have to say I thought he was a good 20 years older than that though.

Re: Demis Roussos

How many people dressed as Demis Roussos to fancy dress parties when he was popular it was an easy one-just a large kaftan and a beard!!
I too remember Abigail's party-one of the classics.
