Anatolian rock
The Turkish rock scene began in the mid- to late 1960s, when popular United States and United Kingdom bands became well-known. Soon, Turkish performers like Mogollar created a distinctively Turkish fusion of rock and folk; this was called Anatolian rock, a term which now generically describes most any kind of Turkish rock.
From 1966 to about 1975, psychedelic rock was very popular in Turkey. After that, more progressive-styled bands became popular, with older performers like Cem Karaca (Safinaz, 1978) and Mogollar (Düm-tek) moving towards prog.
