Good Work Sri Bhai Love That Song

Picturised On Jay Mukherjee

thanks, qasim bhai - glad you like it

even uptil 1970, N Dutta's music was pretty good ... but somehow his music never hit the charts. It is indeed a nice feeling to re-discover these songs after such a long time !

i also saw your new u/l of Rafi songs from rare audio tapes under your topic - very good work - keep it up! some feedback for you - hope you don't mind - in some of the songs i noticed some extra audio sounds ( coming from mouse clicks ) - if possible, try to avoid them while recording

Sri,

I hope you don't mind me uploading songs in your thread but here are two rare songs from the film Netaji Subhashchandra Bose (1966) with music by Salil C.

First song:

Ab Jang Shuru Kal Se Ab Kal Se Hai Sangram

[princeali]

Second song:

Dushmano Savadhaan Shatruon (with Hemant Kumar)

Just a query, could this possibly be the only song that Rafi saab has sung with Hemant da ?.

you're most welcome !!

these are truly rare - i am looking forward to listening to them

the combo of Rafi and Hemant is certainly extremely rare - i have never come across it earlier. Earthmusic lists one more such song - pyari bole bulbul - from the film Hum bhi insaan hain 1957 ( music : Hemant Kumar )

thanks for such really rare songs - what is the source ?

Pleasure is mine Sri !

I got these two songs from my cuz in England who says he received them from one of his good friend's dad who is one of Salil da's biggest fans.

Here's a Rafi song i like from the film Benazir 1964 - picturised on Shashi Kapoor.. with Tanuja and her saheli trying to peep into his room and listening to him singing

Music is by SDBurman ( RD fans may note - he was the assistant music director for this film - like he was, for many SDB movies of that period ). This also has the relatively rare combo of SDB's music with lyrics of Shakeel Badayuni


enjoy !

This song was requested by jam 27 in another thread

"Phir tumhari yaad aayi ae sanam, ae sanam, hum na bhoolenge tumhe allah kasam"

from the film Rustom Sohrab 1963 - music composed in his usual unique style, by the renowned and widely respected Sajjad Hussain, with lyrics by Jan Nisar Akhtar

The song has been sung by Rafi, Manna Dey and Sadat Khan - 5 mins long. In the verse, Manna sings first , then Sadat Khan and finally ... the great Rafi .. and boy! does he make his presence felt !!

enjoy !

Sri

[sri]

by the way, Rustom Sohrab was the last film of music director Sajjad Hussain ( as well as for Suraiya, who sang "yeh kaisi ajab dastaan ho gayi hai"in this film )

Thanks a lot for this song. Really a nice one. Perfect match of Rafi and S.D. Burman whose songs in my opinion are very difficult to sing.
By the way, as a non Indian, I liked the songs of S. D. Burman. He apparently has a unique style.

Is it possible to upload more S.D. Burman songs sung by magic sound Rafi?

Best regards,
Kistin

Kistin bhai,

If you give us a list of your requests, we will be more than happy to help you out

You are right, the SD Burman-Rafi combination is magic !
