Moğollar - Çığrık

Moğollar - Çığrık / Sıla [Yavuz - YA-1543 - 1972]



A brilliant fusion of pop sensibilities and funky psyche from Turkish overlords Moğollar.

Some songs were just made to listen to over and over, and this is one of them. A true gem by a consistently brilliant band.

My most recent mix on Mixcloud - it's a little different from the others, it's more of a heavy psychedelic, deep funk and gritty soul shaker than a cinematic themed affair.
Heavy Load ! is essentially a mixed version of some of my 8 tracks compilations and shares a few of the tracks.
Give it a listen if you are so inclined.

Barış Manço & Kaygisizlar - Trip (To A Fair)

Baris Manco & Kaygisizlar - Karanlıklar İçinde / Trip (To A Fair) [Sayan - FS-180]
Barış Manço & Kaygisizlar - Trip (To A Fair) (1968, Turkey)



There are some songs that just grab you when you listen to them, and this is definitely one of them.

I think I've professed my love of Baris Manco before, and I'm sure you'll agree this is a corker of a song. It's very reminiscent of something else - I get the feeling that it's like a Turkish version of the The First Editions 'Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)'.

Let me know what you think.

Arif Sag - Osman Pehlivan

Arif Sag - Osman Pehlivan (1973)
Arif Sag - Osman Pehlivan (Turkey, 1973)



There's nothing quite like a bit of Turkish psyche to brighten up your day, there was just a wealth of great music came out of Turkey in the late 60's to early 70's. Enjoy this frenetic and entertainingly wah wah driven example of the genre.

3 Hur El - Gonul Sabreyle Sabreyle / Symie

3 Hur-El - Hurel Arsivi (1973)

3 Hur-El - Gonul Sabreyle Sabreyle (Turkey, 1973)



September 70 - Symie

Symie by pixel_face

This was essentially an unfinished piece of work. As you can tell it uses the drums from Gonul Sabreyle Sabreyle extensively, and has a little loop of the intro to Serge Gainsbourg's 69 Annee Erotique to double up the bassline.

It really was just a jumble of parts that was thrown together at the last minute, we'd recorded some guitar and bass but lacked the direction or inspiration to complete the track at the time. When I was putting together the 'Buffalo Kiosk' instrumentals I went back to Symie to make a filler track. In hindsight, I wish we'd finished it originally.
