LP Vinyl – GBLP 182 (LP, Album, Limited Edition, White Vinyl)

Altin Gün are the Amsterdam-based band that have been bridging the gap between Turkish folk and psychedelia since their 2018 debut album On. Garip is their sixth studio album and shows them at the height of their powers as they produce a tribute to the legendary Turkish folk star Neşet Ertaş* (1938-2012), a singer who was a virtuoso on the bağlama (also known as the saz). Garip lovingly reimagines ten of his compositions in Altin Gün’s own inimitable style; filling out Ertaş’s often sparse arrangements with the full band and some gorgeous strings.
