As Kanoume Apopse Mian Arhi is the title of the debut studio album by singer Anna Vissi, released in Greece and Cyprus by Minos in 1977.
Album information
In the 1970s in the Greek music industry, the prerequisite to recording a personal album was to prove one's artistic merits by collaborating and recording with other established musicians. Having proved herself by collaborating with the legendary Mikis Theodorakis and other influential artists like George Dalaras, record company Minos finally granted Vissi the privilege of recording her debut personal studio album. The album featured new songs and songs previously included in various composer albums.
The lead single, "As Kanoume Apopse Mian Arhi" was sung by Vissi at the Thessaloniki Song Festival, on September 26, 1977, prior to the album release, winning first price.
In 1987, "As Kanoume Apopse Mian Arhi" was among the selection of albums that Minos-EMI decided to release on CD as it was still popular. The Minos EMI reissue for the back catalogue Minos EMI CD Club series, which was regularly shipped in shops throughout the years, is shown here.
In 2006 it was re-released in a remasted edition including a bonus CD with additional songs from her early career with Minos featured on albums of other successful artists. In 2007 the songs of the album were included on EMI's boxset of Vissi recordings Back to Time (Complete EMI Years) which, despite of being a box set, charted on the Top 10 of sales charts.
