Product Description
Album Description
After what seems like a decade of cross-continental detective work and blind alley buffoonery, Finders Keepers finally have the auspicious privilege to introduce the incredible music of Anadolu pop's very own Dr. Frankenstein - Maestro Mustafa Ozkent. Regarded amongst hardened collectors of Anatolian rock as THE DADDY of all Turkish rarities, this record simply has to be heard to be believed and even then it's still literally UNBELIEVABLE. Is this record for real? Either these guys had time-machines or DJ Kool Herc had secret Eastern connections. If a box of original copies of this seldom-sighted album had made its way to the South Bronx in the late seventies then Mustafa Ozkent would be sharing throne space with other ultimate breaks and beats such as Michael Viners 'Incredible Bongo Band', Funky Drummer and Johnny The Fox bringing modern record collectors new found Turkish obsession forward by some 20 years!
In 1973, the ten track album was released with the Turkish title 'GENCLIK ILE ELELE' ('Hand In Hand With Youth') with a warm reception from DJ's and nightclubbers through the city, whilst receiving regular plays on radio and television. Despite the cutting-edge approach to Ozkent's eclectic arrangements, the fact that the album was - as originally requested - devoid of vocals, 'Evren' decided not to release any singles from the LP and all the compositions were exclusive to this rare vinyl long player release (many collectors of Turkish vinyl will be aware that within time a huge number of Turkish LPs were taken off the shelves and destroyed or recycled due to oil-shortages, though 45s were spared).
Within a short time as the Anatolian psych explosion approached its hiatus, 'GENCLIK ILE ELELE' paled into the acid-stained paisly backdrop overnight - a familiar tale throughout the Finders Keepers catalogue. With the price of Turkish records going through the roof on certain internet auction sites, FINDERS KEEPERS are the first to bring you the first 100% OFFICIALLY and FULLY LICENSED release of this amazing artist! Released in conjunction with the equally rare and important Selda Bagcan LP (FKR011CD/LP), thirty years down the line, the Anatolian Invasion is on its way to a record store near you...
