Erkin Koray - Elektronik Türküler (1974)


Wiki'd this guy to find some neat info -
"Widely acclaimed as being the first person to ever play rock and roll in Turkey; in 1957, he and his band gained notoriety by playing covers of Elvis Presley and Fats Domino... Koray became a controversial figure in Turkey during the 1960s and 1970s; he was actually assaulted in Istanbul, and on one occasion stabbed, for having long hair... Koray is also the inventor of the electric bağlama, a traditional Turkish musical instrument related to the lute."
