SELDA-Selda Bagcan-70s TURKISH FUNK FUZZ TRIPPED OUT-NEW LP Gatefold

NEW LP

REISSUE

1975 --

Condition: New Copy

Funky breaks and fuzzy guitars -- one of the most amazing albums to come out of the Turkish scene of the 70s -- and one with a sound that really defies categorization!

Although the sweet image of a girl and guitar on the cover might make you think the record's a folk set, the overall production is heavily electric -- filled with fuzzed-up touches on the guitars, and usually supported by some funky drumming that gives most of the record a cool Eastern break sort of feel!

Lyrics aren't in English, but they're oddly compelling even if you don't know what they mean -- as Selda's voice has a weird other-wordly quality, and comes off with the same tripped-out qualities as the music!

Titles include "Ince Ince", "Nasirli Eller", "Mehmet Emmi", "Dost Uyan", "Gitme", "Kizil Dere", "Yaz Gazeteci Yaz", and "Meydan Sizindir".

LP features 2 bonus tracks -- but it's not like you've got the original album, and needed those as an incentive to buy the reissue!
