"For millions of Turks the musician Cem Karaca, who has died of a heart attack aged 58, was a phenomenon who, for nearly four decades mirrored the transformations of his homeland, displayed resolute unwillingness to accept the dead hand of authority, and embodied aspirations for peace and social justice. The rock singer - who had a voice of extraordinary forcefulness - became successively a leader of the left, a fugitive from Turkey's military government in the 1980s, and finally an advocate of coexistence between Turkey's secularists and Islamists. Through his music he reached out to the people of Anatolia and bridged the gap between them and the musical life of Istanbul's western-oriented middle classes. Karaca was the son of actors and he began life in Istanbul. He was most at ease when among that city's bohemian circles. His parents sent him to Robert Academy, the city's American high school, in the hope that he would become a diplomat, but after Karaca discovered that his singing impressed girls, he turned to music. His mother encouraged his singing and Karaca was also dabbling with theatre. In 1967 Karaca and his group, the Apaslar, won a song contest and he went professional. He was soon one of the country's most popular singers. read more here

thank you nahavanda, great music!!!
I admire Cem Karaca for your fight
I admire Cem Karaca for your music
I love music Turkish, especially 60s-70s, adorable, strong, sensible and emotive
Thank you very much!
I live in America and this music is very emotive for me, I am thinking...
What feels who lived everything this?
Respectfully, thanks
Strong music, thanks for sharin this with us
harika bir albüm... bunu da silsinler de görelim; bırak Almanyayı İngiltere'yi, Cem Karaca'nın memleketi Türkiye'de bile baskısı yok albümün!
Dolayısıyla bunun (önceki pek çok "world prog" albümü gibi) yüklenmesi mükemmel bir "kamu hizmeti"... Kerkenez şovn derdine yansın.
Kutluyorum nahavanda, piyasada zor bulunan diğer Cem Karaca'ları da bekliyorum senden (örneğin, Best of Vol. 5 adıyla çok kötü kayıtlı bir kopyası yayınlanan Hasret umarım vardır elinde! Bekle Beni de varsa tadından yenmez hani :) )
yuh! daha yorumu yazmadan silmişler bile! işi gücü yok mu bu insanların abicim ya?
söyleyecek söz bulamıyorum gerçekten!

Bilek teşekkürler, zannetmiyorum ki Şavn bidaha bişi yapabilsin, Karaca Vol.5 bende yok ama bakacağım,hepsi bir bir gelicek
selamlar :)
Thank you so much my friend!
Man, you are incredible! A thousand help for your time!
nahavanda best of 5 bende var aslında (şu anda kuzende ama 1-2 ay içinde kendisinden alabilirim) fakat dediğim gibi piyasadaki baskının kaydı çok kötü. Orijinal "Hasret" plağı veya kasedinden (hatta Almanya'da vaktiyle CD olarak da çıkmış olabilir) bir kayıt bulabilirsek çok iyi olur (elime geçerse iletirim, söz!)
bu arada Die Kanaken da yalan oldu... müsait bi zamanda tekrar yüklersen çok makbule geçer...

Can you re-post 'new york rock & roll ensemble-Reflections' please?
Joanne.
Thanks so much for this, and the commenter who posted the sharebee link. Amazing music.
Aaah Turkish rock- you just gotta love it. If this is along the lines of Erkin Koray or Edip Bakyram I will be very very happy. Keep up the solid posting my friend.
Best, Kevin
