Ege Bamyasi is the fourth studio album by Krautrock pioneers Can. Its name means "Aegean okra" in Turkish. The album contains the single "Spoon", which charted in the Top 20 in Germany, due largely to its use as the theme tune of a popular German TV series at the time.
The cover of the album features a visual pun on the band's name: a can of okra.
