Alex - Alex + That's The Deal

SKU 05-GERMAN941151
Gray-area reissue. "His first two LPs from 1974 and 1976 on one CD, complete and with all original jacket artwork and lyrics. Now performs as Alex Oriental Experience. 'A singer and multi-instrumentalist from Cologne who released several albums which were strongly influenced by the ethnic music of Turkey. His first two albums are now eagerly hunted by collectors, as they featured a unique style of 'Turk-Rock' with stunning baglama solos (this is a kind of three-stringed Turkish guitar)! They were recorded with the help of Holger Czukay and Jaki Liebezeit (possibly adding bass and drums on certain tracks?) at Can's Inner Space studio, so take note all you Can collectors!'" -- Cosmic Dreams At Play.

I've been a Can fan since 1972. I loved this. It is definitely part of the Can legacy. Note, the first LP, tracks 1-9, sounds more Turkish, the second LP sounded more Can, at least they did to me. Lots of good beats to sample, as always with Holger & Jaki. As a comparison, I like this better than my least favorite Can LPs, and almost as much as my most favorite ones. Recommended [Versoix]
