Review by Ken Yamamoto

Gaziantep Türküleri is a beautiful album that showcases the rich musical heritage of Gaziantep, Turkey. Featuring various artists, the album is a collection of traditional Turkish folk songs that have been passed down through generations.

The album opens with the hauntingly beautiful track "Katibim," which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The songs are beautifully arranged and performed, with each artist bringing their own unique style and interpretation to the songs.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Sarı Gelin," a popular Turkish folk song that has been covered by many artists over the years. The version on this album is particularly moving, with the singer's emotive vocals backed by a simple yet powerful arrangement.

Another highlight is "Halay," a lively dance tune that will get listeners tapping their feet and clapping along. The musicians on this track are clearly having a great time, and their enthusiasm is infectious.
