Selda - Self Titled 

Selda is a cult classic! We've been watching a lot of Amoeba What's in My Bag and a lot of people have Selda in their bag for good reason. It inspired me to re spin this. It's been a while. 

Described as " Turkish psych-folk-funk-rock" it contains the heavy hit Ince Ince sampled by Mos Def on Supermagic. However, there are some other great bass heavy nuggets on here like the final track on the first side "Yalalar". 

This is the 2013 repress on Finders Keepers of her 1976 album. Apparently, it took the label ages to find her to sign this release off. A protest singer who was imprisoned on three occasions for her songs about the working class / left views she's now 76 and still preforming whilst running her own record label Majör Müzik Yapım.

Finders Keepers were like the OG reissue label along side Soul Jazz and a few others but I don't see their stuff stocked as much locally to the point I had to check if the label was still running - it is! Don't know why that is - tis a shame.
