Erkin Koray - 2  

VINYL LP    SVVRCH025   

 

Pioneer ErKin Koray may have been the first Turkish rock artist, he and his band reputedly
playing Fats Domino and Elvis covers in 1957; by combining rock ‘n’ roll and Turkish
traditional music, he spearheaded Anatolian rock and became the leading Turkish psychedelic
practitioner. East-west hybrid Elektronik Turkuler was an innovative concept album marrying
rock with Turkish trad; in contrast, the 1976 release 2 is thoroughly grounded in Turkish
traditional music, the understated delivery holding just a touch of psychedelia and a proto-
disco undercurrent in the mix, as heard on tracks like Estarabim, Arap Saçi and Timbilli.
