You're very welcome. It took me about 10 minutes to Google find it but if I didn't find it again, I'd go crazy and thought it was made up :)

Victoria Hazan is great.

I love her Ladino songs...

but my favorite is her performance of Ararim Seni Her Gun

The musicians on the recording are Marko Melkon and Nishan Sedefjian.

Very unusual since usually we have to hear Nick Doneff on all of this era's recordings and not Sedefjian who was in my opinion a better player.

Nick Doneff just owned the recording studio!!! Of course he was great too.....

my other favorite song is Degirmenci with Marko Melkon as a duet. What a great song!!!! That's really what we call a kef song....

Indeed it is a very kef filled song. Any idea if these lyrics are easy to find?

Adam, the lyrics to Degirmenci can be found on several Turkish websites. However, they don't write them exactly as Victoria and Marko sing them. In the next couple days I'll try to write them out.

Aman degirmenci
Kuzum degirmenci
Sirma gibi saclar senin senin olsun
Ogut ogut bugdayimi

Olmaz hanimim olmaz
Oluklarda su dolmaz
Arkadaslar kayil olmaz
Al git bugdayini

thats the beginning.

Olmaz hanımım olmaz
Oluklara su dolmaz

Al git buğdayını

Aman değirmenci

On da senin olsun
Öğüt öğüt buğdayımı

On da senin olsun
Öğüt öğüt buğdayımı

(Değirmenci)

Oluklara su dolsun
Arkadaşlar kayil olsun
Al gel buğdayını

the above is my rewriting of the lyrics to match how marko and victoria sing it. I found a very similar version on turkudostlari which I modified. under the title "aman degirmenci"

You are AMAZING thank you so much. Eventually I'll get to marking up a notation for it, will let you know.
