Ali Ekber Cicek “Turkish Sufi Music” RARE ORIG LYRICHORD FOLK LUTE LP
Artist: Al Ekber Cicek Title: “Turkish Sufi Music - Folk Lute Of Anatolia" Label: Lyrichord (LLST 7392) Year: Mid - Late 70sCondition: Vinyl - MINT Cover - M--
Description: very rare original Lyrichord LP of Turkish Sufi music being played by the great Ali Ekber Cecik, regarded as an authority of the tradition. A little review of the LP is below. The vinyl is in pristine mint condition, appears unplayed. Cover shows little wear, M-- condition.
"In the dry, sun-baked hills of Anatolia was born a folk music of passion and rhythmic energy. Musicians of the secretive Moslem Sufi sect adapted this powerful music for religious rites and created a lively, raw musical form. These songs are still a staple of popular music in Turkey, where Ali Ekber Cicek is regarded as the premier interpreter of Sufi music. In his rendering, classic Sufi works become a showcase for startling technical prowess on the lute-like baglama and the emotive powers of his voice. This is a master's tour of a sophisticated musical form rarely heard west of the Bospherous."
***BIDDERS - PLEASE READ THE BELOW***
I grade my LPs VERY conservatively and accurately under a bright light. A description of the grading scale is below:
M: MINT - perfect. vinyl is pristine / cover is flawless and/or sealed
M- : just under mint. a very, very slight amount of wear on the cover or inaudible wear on the vinyl (surface wear from age, generally) but is otherwise flawless
VG+: vinyl / cover shows signs minor signs age or wear that are more or less undistinct / inaudible.
VG: vinyl / cover shows some visible wear / age but is overall in very good shape. pops and clicks may be ever so slightly noticeable, but don't effect play or overall listening experience.
VG-: vinyl / cover shows some relatively apparent age but is in overall good shape and still a fine copy to own / play.
G+: vinyl shows some heavy wear but overall sounds decent. cover has some flaws or shows much age
G: vinyl is in pretty rough shape visibly but plays ok. cover shows a lot of age or has some major splits or tears.
G-: vinyl looks / sounds pretty rough. cover has major condition issues such as water damage, large rips, etc
*a double "+" or "-" indicates that the condition is just above or below the neighboring grade
