Istanbul 70: Psych, Disco, Folk Classics


Following his excellent series of edits, Baris K compiles fourteen original Turkish Psych, Disco and Folk classics on two discs. As recently showcased on Bouzouki Joe's brilliant 'Turkish Freakout' compilations and various Finders Keepers records, Turkey had a real thirst for westernized music from the mid-late '60s onwards, infusing and hybridizing with their native melodies and tastes to create a unique form of east-meets-west pop music, to the extent that even superstars such as Johnny Hallyday were recording entire albums in Turkish specifically for the burgeoning and (at the time) prosperous market. Baris K is a renowned DJ and collector of this classic period and has assembled a superb selection here spanning the well known likes of Baris Manço & Mogollar's 'Binboganin' thru to lesser known but equally ace cuts like Nazan Soray's silky disco stunner 'Teselliye Sen Gerek', the epic folkrock of Derdiyoklar's 'Yaz Gazeteci' and the mouthwatering psychedelic spice of Mogollar's 'Müzik Mogollar (Kaleidoscopic Dream)'. Well recommended!
