Rock festivals??

What does rock n coke have anything to do with anatolian rock? The title and the subheadings have inconsistencies.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.198.223.162 (talk) 11:40, 13 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Clean up

I have just tidied this up a bit. No idea if Anatolian Rock Music even exists! Anjouli 11:19, 24 Nov 2003 (UTC)

You are ridiculous, of course it exists.. Just because you are ignorant, doesn't make things dissappear lol —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.106.142.38 (talk) 09:27, 3 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well the musicians listed seem to exist, as does the genre - but not much on English websites. Anjouli 11:26, 24 Nov 2003 (UTC)

That means we have a marketing problem.--Doktor Gonzo 13:29, 3 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dr.Tomy Eigen

The Princeton University

The History Art, "The evolution of Music"

Is this a reference ? theresa knott 11:20, 24 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Could not make any sense of this so I removed it. (Tomy Eigen yields no Google hits.)Anjouli 11:25, 24 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Minor copy editing and request for additional info

I fixed some minor typos and tried to streamline the text in order to make it more readable. I also created the history subsection and moved one paragraph from the lead into that area in addition to adding a paragraph of information I ran across.

This topic is interesting...does anyone know any more about it? For instance, the article mentions "Progressive Anatolian Style"--does anyone know what that is? I'd love to know. Lazulilasher (talk) 02:51, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nice work, it actually looks like something now. About progressive Anatolian style, honestly I have no idea. I recommend you to listen to Mezarkabul (aka Pentagram in Turkey) for some more modern examples of Anatolian rock, that's what I've been doing for the last couple of days ;).--Doktor Gonzo 11:15, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm listening to Mezarkabul right now. They're pretty (very) good--but then I'm a sucker for gang vocals. Here's a YouTube clip of their song "Anatolia". I'm going to do some searching today for some more history of the movement to see what I can find. Hopefully we can flesh out the page a bit--it's pretty cool stuff and I never even know it existed until I stumbled on this page. Lazulilasher (talk) 12:53, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I realized that you removed the Omega and Status Quo in order to make it short, but these two have important influence on the progressive Anatolian style. Regards. E104421 (talk) 16:27, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Ok, I added Omega and Status Quo back. Lazulilasher (talk) 01:02, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  - Thank you for re-introducing them, and for notifying me in my talk page. Actually, the first five albums by Status Quo had an influence on the bands at the beginning, since at that time there was a motion in Turkish bands towards Psychedelic music (especially, Erkin Koray's albums), mainly Psychedelic rock. Later, the motion changed to progressive modes (for example, Mavi Işıklar). The Hungarian band Omega (especially, the album Ejszakai Orszagut) influenced the early bands of Anatolian rock towards progressive rock. Regards. E104421 (talk) 11:05, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Awkward title?

The title is a bit awkward? Anatolian rock is a genre of music - some of these bands subsequently signed with foreign labels, etc so the scope of the title is too narrow. Also, Anatolian rock music is the common term used by WP:RS. Would there be objections to moving this?Seraphim System ^(talk) 13:11, 25 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The article is about all kinds of rock music, not just Anadolu rock. Anadolu rock is just a subgenre/precessor. Arved (talk) 07:55, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Then the lede sentence should be rewritten and we can set up a separate article for Anatolian rock? Seraphim System ^(talk) 13:35, 26 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Just moved the page. Rjrya395 (talk) 19:48, 24 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Anatolian and Turkish rock

I suggest creating a new article called "Turkish rock" and move the part which is under "The Era of Turkish rock" title to the new article because Anatolian rock and Turkish rock are not the same things.--Hustle77 ¿aquí estás?💬 15:16, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense. Colaheed777 (talk) 19:06, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Related musicians and bands" section

This section is clearly a mess. About half of the artists mentioned are already in the article, and they can be safely removed. I suggest either inserting the rest into the main article or, at worst, putting them in See also. Colaheed777 (talk) 19:09, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
