Rebetiko, plural
rebetika (
Greek: ρεμπέτικο, and ρεμπέτικα respectively), occasionally transliterated as
Rembetiko, is a term used today to designate originally disparate kinds of urban
Greek folk music which have come to be grouped together since the so-called rebetika revival, which started in the 1960s and developed further from the early 1970s onwards.
