Jason and the Argonauts were the greek equivalent of the modern day Monkees - their 'Adventures' were acted in ampitheartres all over Greece and Macedonia to enourmous popular acclaim. The Scripts were re-discovered in a Mykonos' goat herders hut in 1961. Ray Harryhausen then bought them in a boot sale and used them to great effect in his 1963 adaptions. The tragedy of this story is that he would only stump up the cash for the scripts, refusing to pay for the lyrics and music - this led to such classics as 'Last cart to Athens' and 'Randy Turkish Git' being lost forever. Although it is rumoured that Neil Diamond was seen in the area at the time.
