    I appreciate your responce, but I mean 0:35:01 (35 minutes) inside the video, not 35 seconds from the beginning. Yet it is totally useful to also know the intro song. Thanks

    The name of the movie would be awesome. Google translate says The grooms of Happiness .

    Hahaha ))) It's a proper translation, except from the "Happiness" "Ευτυχία" is also a female's name, which means 'happiness'. The case is that they can't find a groom for her ...

    Hi,

    A lot of Greek films from the sixties didn't use original music for copyright reasons, instead they would use a cheesy soundalike track.

    I would suggest however at looking at some Duane Eddy stuff, or surf bands around that time.

    Thanks (Euxaristo file mou). Indeed it looks like Duane Eddy, yet I guess the guitar sound is a bit different. I will have a search, but if someone can help I will still be looking in this post.

    The song reminded me of the artist 'Ventures'

    Check out some of Mimis Plessas stuff.

    As I mentioned previously, for copyright reasons film producers would use an alternative track instead of original music.

    Mimis Plessas provided a lot of music for sixties films of this ilk.

    Of course This however was a low-budget film, didn't have a dedicated composer. So I guess this was not an original recording for the film. Will keep looking
