Arkadaş 1984 by Arkadaş
Turkish Jazz-Funk Eastern flavoured sounds meets with the Western instruments.
Amazing Folk-Funk/Jazz groove album by this little known band "Arkadaş" from Switzerland (founded and produced by Tanju Dalgıç). Arkadas means Friend!
The band has left 2 incredible album from 1984 and 1986. 5 Turkish songs in the vein of powerful groove with Turkish folk influences,
lovely funky beats with Turkish Baglama/Saz, Sax, Bass and hot drumming. All of the songs were more than perfect, not even a boring minute on the both albums.
Unique Turkish Folk-Jazz sounds (Okay Temiz sound was unique but instrumental, here we have some vocals).

In an effort to bring back to light albums that have almost been forgotten and to pass them on to the next generation, "Arşivplak" (Archive Record) has brought previously unheard, little-known, or only released abroad Turkish Pop/Folk/Jazz/Funk/Electronic works to the listener, sometimes as Long Play, sometimes as 45's, and sometimes only as digital records.
