Although Odeon Records, the company Xylouris, his brother Giannis and their cousin Zacharias Fasoulas had approached to make their pitch, followed standard procedure and granted them an audition, the executives were worried that Cretan music lacked commercial potential at that time, and therefore initially rejected the idea of going forward with the release of a single. Upon hearing of the company's decision, Greek MP from Crete Pavlos Vardinogiannis, who provided Xylouris lodging during his visit to the label's corporate headquarters and was fond of Cretan musical tradition, intervened not only vouching for Xylouris as a musician, but promising to fully reimburse Odeon for every unit that remained unsold, should the project fail to meet their expectations. Odeon relented, and the recording took place with Xylouris' wife Ourania providing supporting vocals for her husband at the studio. The single was a major success, completely vindicating Vardinogiannis and his judgment. Other singles would follow with Odeon, but its executives remained ambivalent as to the marketability of both Xylouris as an artist and Cretan music as a genre. Much later, when Columbia, their main competitor, signed Xylouris and his popularity exploded, Odeon having realized their mistake, tried to lure him out of his new contract and back into their ranks with a very lucrative counteroffer. However, being a person who as a matter of principle placed honor and loyalty before profits and self-advancement, Xylouris politely turned them down. When Columbia leadership found out about their rivals' failed bid, they decided to improve the financial terms of Xylouris' contract of their own accord, without him ever having requested a renegotiation. 504:
said to "consume the Turks as if they were fish", in an account provided by Xylouris himself, and reiterated by his brother Giannis. The nickname was passed down along the male line of the family, with each person's given name substituting the inaugural one respectively, and the prefix remaining intact. In a slightly different origin story, it was said that Antonis kept company with a group of Cretans who exercised guerilla warfare tactics against the Turks, with deliberate dispersal and reunification at predetermined locations after brief engagements and skirmishes. Antonis would "catch up to the rest of them as if they were a school of fish that broke up and then coalesced again; they were as slippery as fish, in waters they knew all too well, and thus impossible to apprehend", Antonis himself being the most nimble, and frustrating the Turks who could never capture him. Or, in yet another variation, quick enough to strike at two distant target locations in a single day, and both times disappear as quickly and efficiently as fish vanish in the sea. The use of such nicknames, bestowed for specific traits or actions, is prevalent throughout the Greek countryside, and its familial aspect is often retained on purpose, so as to distinguish between clans, branches, or unrelated families with identical surnames. Conversely, some nicknames may be unique to specific individuals, and may reflect a notable incident of their lives which warrants extraordinary praise, attention, recognition, or, alternately, condemnation.
630:, the largest city in Crete, where he would soon make nightly appearances at the venue "Kastron" (Greek: Κάστρον, literally meaning Castle, which invoked the city's Medieval name). At first, little was gained in terms of headway, and making ends meet in the city was challenging. The audience, mostly urban and somewhat upper class, had moved away from Cretan traditional music, Xylouris' own turf, and had become much more accustomed to European rhythms and tunes, looking down upon the "old people's music" of their rural contemporaries and counterparts. In such an environment, all folk musicians struggled to adapt and survive financially, not least due to their utter lack of multilingual term familiarity, which foreign lyrics seemed to necessitate. Furthermore, city musicians were distrustful of newcomers and unwilling to yield them any professional breathing space. By his own account, Xylouris was reluctant to admit to his father that he was facing great hardships during that time, and instead assured him to the contrary. Gradually, he developed a personal following, found a firm foothold, and carved out a niche for himself. His friends and admirers not only provided encouragement, but organized gatherings for him to play music at, earn a living from, and attract additional support by. In 1967 he helped establish in Heraklion the first exclusively Cretan folk music hall, which was named 638:. This venue would cater to the needs of rural Cretans who were visiting the city either for business or on social grounds, and sought a kind of entertainment they were familiar and comfortable with during their sojourn. Such denizens would bring their entire families in tow, and would also convince their urban acquaintances to tag along. As a consequence, Cretan folk music, which for all intents and purposes was moribund in the city, experienced a revival. In the course of time, Xylouris not only found acceptance as a musician in Heraklion, but he was also able to turn his demanding urban audience around, causing them to rediscover, appreciate and preserve Cretan folk music for future generations. It was the first major goal he had set out to accomplish, the second one being to make that music known well beyond the confines of his native island. With his transition to Athens a few years later, he would captivate the Greek national audience in its entirety and, alongside other famous musicians from Crete, he would proceed to introduce Cretan traditional music to every Greek household. Therefore, today he is at least partially credited with achieving both. 871:(a.k.a. Cretan Vendetta) between the two families, Ourania was ostracized by her family for the perceived insult of the elopement, and by her own account, that would create a lifelong psychological wound in her which the extremely warm reception she was given at Anogeia could scarcely compensate for. Eventually, Ourania and her family managed to reconcile, after her husband's career took off and his livelihood was secured. The couple had two children, a son named Giorgis (George; Greek: Γεώργιος / Γιώργης) after his paternal grandfather and a daughter named Rinio (Irene; Greek: Ειρήνη / Ρηνιώ) after her maternal grandmother, and remained happily married until Xylouris' untimely passing. As rural custom ordains, Ourania has maintained her mourning (Greek: πένθος) ever since, and never remarried. The love story of the couple is often recounted in Greek Media and it echoes in part the great Cretan poetic (epic-lyric) work 617:, (the three-stringed or four-stringed Cretan fiddle analogue, which is played held upright, usually supported on the knee), a significant investment at the time. Giorgis resented the notion of his elder son becoming a musician, which was deemed somewhat menial and rather disreputable as a full-time occupation, and preferred that he attain higher education instead, which would enable him to improve the overall outlook of his life, and escape the dire circumstances of poverty and hardship that plagued his fellow villagers. Thus, Giorgis fiercely opposed his son's demand at first. However, between the boy's entreaties and the exhortations of local school teacher Menelaos Dramountanis who had identified Xylouris' enormous potential and considered his singing voice to be a decisive asset, Giorgis acquiesced and Xylouris acquired his first instrument at the age of twelve. After an 664:(Quarrels with the jasmine | Greek: Καβγάδες με το γιασεμί) on the reverse. The single was a resounding success, and the public's enthusiastic response meant that prior reservations concerning the appeal of Cretan folk music were mostly unfounded, a fact which was not lost on company executives. Xylouris had caught the eye of the top brass, and his future looked brighter than ever. Shortly thereafter, he began making appearances in Athens, which would eventually become his new home. Nevertheless, in spite of Anyfantou's soaring popularity, not all parties involved in folk music were enthralled. When, at the behest of his brother Giannis and Zacharias Fasoulas, who both accompanied him with their lutes and were his permanent associates, Xylouris met with the highly controversial musicologist and Director for Folk Music Programming at the Greek National Radio 585:, among other literary endeavors. Upon their return to Anogeia, citizens had to rebuild their homes and town from scratch, and the harshness of the undertaking imbued them with a sense of purpose, dedication, self-reliance, solidarity and pride. Due to the fact that village archives had perished in the flames, some ambiguity still exists as to the exact birth dates of all persons who had yet to produce additional official documentation, such as marriage and/or military service certificates, Xylouris included. This is the reason why certain sources may offer conflicting birth dates, although the one mentioned herein is considered to be the most probable and accurate by consensus. Archives were recreated based on village elder and relative testimony, to the best of the inhabitants' ability. In Xylouris' case, his date of birth had evidently coincided with the 626:. In those events, gifted musicians were being generously rewarded, and not just by one sole organizing party, but by all participants to the celebration who, if affluent enough, as per custom, would present the orchestra with banknotes for every single song or dancing tune they requested be played. Musicians' reputations grew by crowd acclaim and word of mouth, once they were proven able to please, stir and entertain their audience for the duration of the event, which could sometimes last for days on end. Having earned a good reputation as a skilled and sought-after musician, and aspiring to become a widely recognized professional with full financial independence, at age seventeen Xylouris again surprised his parents when he decided to move from his native Anogeia to 472:. He was born to a family and community of herdsmen and farmers, who much like other Greek Islanders, were very well versed in Greek traditional music, with many locals adept at playing multiple folk musical instruments, either as amateurs or in a semi-professional and fully professional capacity. The village of Anogeia has produced several musicians who rose to island-wide and later nation-wide prominence over the years, and as pertains to affairs of culture it continues to exert significant influence. Xylouris was the fourth child and first son of Giorgis Xylouris and his wife Eleftheria, and was born after sisters Elli, Zoumboulia and Euridice. His two male siblings who followed in order of birth, 804:, under the title "To Megalo Mas Tsirko" (Our Great Circus | Greek: Το Μεγάλο μας Τσίρκο) which enjoyed unprecedented success. Several slogans that were used in the play, such as Psomi - Paideia - Eleftheria (Bread - Education - Freedom | Greek: Ψωμί - Παιδεία - Ελευθερία) and Foni Laou - Orgi Theou (Voice of the People - Wrath of God | Greek: Φωνή Λαού - Οργή Θεού) were quickly adopted by protesting university students who would come from across the street to watch the play, became inextricably linked with the events surrounding their uprising, and found their way into the Greek Nation's collective consciousness after the 690:, who was living in Paris at the time, to make him aware of his find. More than a business associate, Xarchakos would become a bosom friend to Xylouris and his family. This version is bolstered by concurrent reports in the Athenian Press that Lambropoulos had found "a major new vocal talent" in Crete, as well as the in-law-type bond formed between him and Xylouris (Greek: κουμπαριά) which Lambropoulos would pride himself on. Xarchakos and Xylouris also had a prolific collaboration, which extended into the theater. 668:, the latter derided Anyfantou and questioned Xylouris' ability to properly render traditional songs that were core to his repertoire, an opinion which none of the major composers and conductors Xylouris would later work with shared, but which left him understandably shocked and dismayed at the time. Ultimately, the Greek National Radio would come around to embrace Anyfantou, by featuring the song in one of its special commemorative broadcasts. 677:
Music Hall. In what remains standard practice to this day, musicians who distinguish themselves in Crete are invited to perform for Cretans who permanently reside in the Capital, and to a lesser extent other major cities. During such a stint, Xylouris met film director and screenwriter Errikos Thalassinos, himself also of Cretan descent, who became one of his dearest friends, and went on to introduce him to composer

difference in social status. Ourania was the offspring of an affluent family, while Xylouris was seen as little more than an itinerant musician.

In the following months, Xylouris would nonetheless
