Ege Bamyasi
Ege Bamyası (Turkish pronunciation: [ˈeɟe ˈbamjasɯ], lit. "Aegean okra") is the third studio album by German krautrock band Can, originally released as an LP in 1972 by United Artists. The album contains the single "Spoon", which charted in the Top 10 in Germany owing its use as the theme of German TV thriller mini-series Das Messer. The success of the single allowed Can to move to a better studio in Weilerswist, where they recorded the rest of the album.
