One of the greatest rock albums of the year. Goknar has emerged as one of the most gifted and urgent writers of our time; someone who talks the talk of a wounded lover and rants like someone really in love. His guitar playing is wildly restrained. His band melodic and full of punch; "Lucky" stands as a testament to what truly talented musicians can do even without the enticement of huge record contracts and mega-deals. So buy it already. And crank it.

Evren Goknar, is a loose dude in a good mood. This is music without compromise. He kicks ass. I have been a fan of his work for nearly five years. I am especially impressed with the unbelievable rhythm section he has obtained. Although when I bought the CD, I was unable to figure out who that wizard skin master drummer he uses? Oh, well. Top notch work. I especially like the way he incorporates those catastrophic, turkish eye gestures into his live show.
