Description

Yekte on CD

Digitally remastered collection of rare '70s recordings from the Turkish singer/songwriter. In Turkey, Psychedelia wasn't just some fleeting fad. Fuzzed-out guitar shredding genuinely intersected with some of the goals of traditional Folk and Classical music. As a result, even former twist singers and Folk balladeers explored some fascinating and wild territory. Meet Alpay, the soccer player turned lawyer turned singer who started matching local lyrics to Western arrangements even before the mid-'60s countrywide battle of the bands concerts. These early '70s singles lay down doleful Anatolian melodies, and they're simply soaking in heavy and wha wha guitar solos. If you're ready to go beyond Baris & Erkin, this is the perfect spot.
