Tracklisting
CAFÉ TÜRK
vinyl Album or track playing
- Café Türk are an inimitable Turkish-Swiss band formed in the 1980s, whose genre-bending sonic palette draws from Anatolia, the Caucasus, and Western Europe.

- Weaving in the crackling energy of new wave, rock, disco and reggae with influences from Turkey and Azerbaijan.

-This self-titled compilation features previously unreleased recordings and selected works from Café Türk's discography. From the rolling disco of the group's debut recording "Haydi Yallah"; to the previously unreleased kosmiche of "Yildizlar", "Ali Baba From Istanbul"s Azeri grooves and German language vocals, to the psyched-out interpretation of Caucasian folk tune "Samil", Café Türk showcases the endless stream of ideas the band had during their time together between 1983 and 1990.
