Rel: 4 Nov 24
Psychedelic/Garage Rock Side 1. BebekSide 2. Irgat
1974's cult classic 'Bebek' is a stunning example of Anatolian rock, crafted by the legendary Baris Manco and his iconic band Kurtalan Ekspres. Sung by Sevil & Ayla, two stars from Turkey's golden era of cinema, this record fuses Turkish folk with psychedelic rock in a way that is both unique and interesting. On Side-1 'Bebek', stands out with its powerful strings and bassline. Sevil and Ayla's haunting vocals tell a tragic tale of a mother losing her child to an eagle, adding emotional depth to the groovy instrumentation. On the flip side, 'Irgat' offers a groovy, rider-like rhythm, highlighted by a brilliant keyboard solo and an infectious break, making it a hidden gem for dance floors. This reissue revives a timeless piece of Turkish musical history, appealing to both crate diggers and modern listeners.
