Here we go!
Rob from Maryland 3:01:55 PM
Hello Captain. I missed last week's show, am happy to catch at least part of it today.
Captain Ahab (host) 3:02:31 PM
Hey Rob! Glad you could tune in, today's show is also anatolian rock like last week, so a bit different from the usual fare
Brian D 3:02:51 PM
Çöl Gezisi iki
Rob from Maryland 3:03:25 PM
@Captain Ahab, I normally don't/can't listen to your show. I saw in last week's playlist about Anatolian Rock so I am happy and piqued to hear it today!
Captain Ahab (host) 3:08:51 PM
Yay! Glad I could bring it back today as well
Brian D 3:11:49 PM
Wow i have heard this before
Captain Ahab (host) 3:12:18 PM
It's had a bit of a revival after being reissued by Finders Keepers
Brian D 3:13:12 PM
That lp cover yeah! We love Finders Keepers . That must be where/ how i heard it
Brian D 3:16:55 PM
Totally by coincidence my wife and i dressed up as nazars ("evil eye" amulet) for a Halloween party. Posterboard hanging on neck over chest painted dark blue, turquoise, black, white. Easy!
Captain Ahab (host) 3:17:36 PM
LOL I've not heard of nazars as a costume before!
Captain Ahab (host) 3:17:46 PM
Got one hanging up on the wall behind me
Brian D 3:19:12 PM
The younger crowd there actually knew what it was. And the mid to older crowd only knew what it was if their relatives came from the Mediterranean (1 of host 's family is Italian American)
Jon Solomon 3:25:37 PM

Captain Ahab (host) 3:31:36 PM
🧿🧿🧿
Joe Rathbone 3:32:25 PM
Ersen ve Dadaşlar - Güneşe Dön Çiçeğim Ersen ve Dadaşlar Güneşe Dön Çiçeğim now that was a really nice track well done Cap !
Captain Ahab (host) 3:33:11 PM
Glad you liked it!
Captain Ahab (host) 3:34:27 PM
Now we're awake
Brian D 3:35:18 PM
Scream for your supper
Brian D 3:38:56 PM
Surfin the Med
Brian D 3:39:16 PM
Love that key board tone!
James Walton 3:42:15 PM
Action Bronson ripped this Urfali Babi tune
Captain Ahab (host) 3:43:02 PM
I knew he ripped Mazhar and Fuat, I've got that track lined up for the second half, but did he rip this as well? Crazy
James Walton 3:44:03 PM
Yeah check out "Mongolia" by Action Bronson
Captain Ahab (host) 3:49:35 PM
Wow wow wow, thanks for the heads up I'll mention that too when I get to the Mazhar and Fuat song
Jon Solomon 3:56:46 PM
Has this one been sampled too? That hook sounds familiar...
Captain Ahab (host) 3:59:23 PM
Very well could be, as I'm learning!
Rob from Maryland 4:01:40 PM
The ?bass line of Yali Yali reminded me of a part of Tubular Bells and maybe even a song by the group Gong. But don't quote me on either
jimbeaux 4:10:08 PM
ROCK ME, Anatolia! Thanks for playing Mustafa Ozkent.
Brian D 4:12:41 PM
Yali Yali itself supposedly samples bass from ALW's JC Superstar song "Heaven on Their Minds"
George Korein 4:13:01 PM
Talking Turkey 🇹🇷
George Korein 4:13:21 PM
🤘
Brian D 4:13:46 PM
An early sample at that! 1977
Brian D 4:14:10 PM
I took a tryp ... to phan...
Captain Ahab (host) 4:14:53 PM
oh wow! very cool detail, makes sense now
George Korein 4:14:53 PM
✈️ 🦃 😵‍💫
Brian D 4:15:54 PM
I see it on multiple sites yeah. Such a great show today Ahab!
George Korein 4:16:12 PM
That is an emoji depiction of the tryp to phan
Captain Ahab (host) 4:16:34 PM
👏👏👏
Captain Ahab (host) 4:18:43 PM
It's not Rasputin! Hold your breath for the mic break
Brian D 4:19:08 PM
George and I and Lizbot and others could just have a never ending pun/ inside joke/ spoonerism/ play on words / call back joke-a-thon anytime...
Rob from Maryland 4:19:37 PM
It does sound like Boney M though, this current song
Brian D 4:21:51 PM
The rasputiberries taste just like rasputiberries and the snozzberries taste just like snozzberries... what's a snozzberries... you know... i grow more deaf every day
Guelo 4:24:31 PM
Sputin?? I like snozzberries ;)
Guelo 4:24:39 PM
That set was awesome!
Brian D 4:27:36 PM
Check out the band from Minnesota - Boiled in Lead. They have been known to do Turkish music... and music from just about every country in Europe.
Grady 4:29:29 PM
holy cow lol ... action bronson on prb
Brian D 4:30:29 PM
He's got some 'sputin to do....
Captain Ahab (host) 4:31:59 PM
@Grady LOL
Brian D 4:32:00 PM
The O.G. Mazhar. This is just beautiful.
Captain Ahab (host) 4:34:41 PM
Thanks for the tip about Boiled in Lead Brian, will check them out
Captain Ahab (host) 4:35:16 PM
And yeah I love this track so much, it's about being a sufi mystic, being one with the world, the only enemy in the world is malice
Captain Ahab (host) 4:35:38 PM
really powerful stuff, especially given it's a 13th century poem by Yunus Emre
Brian D 4:36:33 PM
and another great band that features the music of Eastern Europe & elsewhere is 3 Mustaphas 3.
Brian D 4:36:42 PM
A British band
Jon Solomon 4:37:32 PM
I love our regularly scheduled DC programming but I'm learning so much these past two weeks I wonder if you should do one of these quarterly? Or perhaps record one-offs here and there to be broadcast on [redacted]?
Captain Ahab (host) 4:39:04 PM
I'm also realizing how much I enjoy sharing this music and will definitely continue it in some form (I'm hoping to get one of the 3 hour slots in the spring if we are still LRBing and maybe do a one hour bit within that)
Jon Solomon 4:39:35 PM
Ooh! I bet People Who Are Not Just Me would love that.
Brian D 4:39:36 PM
Features or featured past tense as 3 Mustaphas 3 don't really exist as a working unit anymore but hey ... did they ever exist at all ha
Captain Ahab (host) 4:40:03 PM
Speaking of ...Cixmloud.... I'm almost fully up to date! Uploads through August are all up
Brian D 4:40:27 PM
Ya this is welcome any time in my book Ahab
Rob from Maryland 4:53:31 PM
I've enjoyed this show, Captain. Thanks!
Captain Ahab (host) 4:53:41 PM
My pleasure!
jimbeaux 4:59:05 PM
Volume 3!!!
jimbeaux 4:59:16 PM
Thank youuuuuuuu...
Brian D 4:59:18 PM
Have a good one all. Great time today Ahab. Look forward to the return of the fuzz but loved the past 2 weeks!
Captain Ahab (host) 4:59:18 PM
Thanks team, catch you next time!
Rob from Maryland 5:01:10 PM
Yes, volume 3!
