Edip AkbayramEDIP AKBAYRAM
Rare Anatolian Turkish Progressive Psychedelic Folk Funk with Funky Drums Wah Wah and B Lines
As Turkey's political factions turned more and more violent in the late 1970s, Buscemi- eyed Edip Akbayram was nearly beaten up by rioting audiences for daring to sing about rural points of view that were naturally critical of Istanbul's political leaders.
This second album of Anatolian psychedelia, originally released in 1977, showed defiance even in its gatefold art, with a drawing of the band members seeming to grow straight out the ground, covered in plant tendrils.
Akbayram poached members of Mo?ollar and Bari? Manço's Kurtalan Ekspres to get the best fuzz breaks and hammond slams & put 'em straight in your ears. The band also tried out some mixes that pushed the vocals or a particular instrument way up front, and of course long, low, reverberant welcomes from Edip's echo- covered voice.
Tracklist:
Yaralarim - Arabam Kaldi Yolda - Adam Olmak Dile Kolay - Dar Agaci - Kolum Nerden Aldin Zinciri - Ayrilik - Birak Beni - Haberin Varmi - Mehmet Emmi - Ka?larin Karasina
Tunes taken from mystic Sufi poets who played the ba?lama, but retrofitted with hard plowing electric bass lines, funky drums, fuzz- wah guitars and keyboards.
Remastered sound, insert / booklet with photos and liner notes...
Vinyl comes with exact reproduction of the Original Gatefold Pop- Up Sleeve.
