We saw it, and thought ‘this is a funny idea’, and made a photograph of it, and called the record Ege Bamyasi, which is Turkish for okra. We wrote to the Turkish company to tell them we have been called Can for a couple of years. We got a letter back from their lawyers saying ‘you are not allowed to call yourselves Can, and if you continue to do so, we will sue you’. I’m not such a big fan of okra anyway, it isn’t really my vegetable.\"", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
