## Appears on

### [Estarabim](https://waxonia.com/track/erkin-koray--estarabim/)

*1974 · No. 1 in [Anadolu Rock](https://waxonia.com/genre/anadolu-rock/)*

From Elektronik Türküler, and the record that settles the argument. Koray built himself an electric saz because no guitar would give him the intervals he wanted.

### [Kendim Ettim Kendim Buldum](https://waxonia.com/track/erkin-koray--kendim-ettim-kendim-buldum/)

*1973 · No. 7 in [Anadolu Rock](https://waxonia.com/genre/anadolu-rock/)*

Koray's guitar tone is filthier here than anything coming out of Britain the same year, and the melody is a straight Anatolian folk line. Both facts at once is the whole genre.
