While the recent origins of the Irish, or "Celtic" bouzouki are a matter of record, some aspects of the story are still somewhat in dispute.   Most players and builders of the instrument agree that the introduction of the Greek bouzouki into Irish traditional music in the late 1960s is probably the single most crucial event in the brief history of the "Irish" bouzouki.
