Turkish music combined with jazzy funk... On the surface, an almost unbeatable combination, and one which Ferdi Özbeğen has undoubtedly pulled off with this song: Köprüden geçti gelin ('the bride crosses the bridge', I think - Turkish speakers: please help!).
-
Born in Izmir in 1941, Ferdi Özbeğen seems to have been one of the "kings of 70s cheese" of Turkish music, but this song - taken from an apparently quite rare compilation entitled 'Bosporus Bridges - A Wide Selection of Turkish Jazz and Funk 1969-1978' (Discogs - link >>>) - is just unbelievably good!
-
Having just returned from a week-end jumping off a yacht in a bay near Bodrum, I can safely say that this tune of Ferdi's is one of the best cures for "post-Bodrum blues" I could ever have imagined!
