about

What a fantastic insanely Turkish garage band Siluetler.
The group was founded in Istanbul by Mesut Aytunca. He was a bass guitarist, but when he founded Silüetler with Erol Bilem he began playing solo guitar. In the early days of Silüetler, the group inspired from The Shadows, although their music was based on traditional Turkish music arranged for guitar band. According to one view: ”Silüetler took Turkish music out from an identity crisis.
In 1965 Golden Microphone contest they played Kaşık Havası, a well known Turkish melody played during folkloric dances along with their entry Sis and they again took the third place. Next year, they were more successful in the same contest. They played Lorke and took the first place.
These guys had the rarest Turkish garage LP ever!
In 1967 their first LP record was released in which they added some American hits to their repertoire.
Rudimentary garage instros including the fascinating oriental garage tunes and popular cover songs from the those were days, so the whole album is cool. Fantastic grouppic.

Lovely singing and great music. I can really feel the emotion behind each song and how it's sung. The mix of east and west sounds is very inspiring. Long before we had wars we had each others music and were drawn to the sound. The music is beautiful. VUKARI
