Yaad-E-Mehboob
This album boasts several ghazals sung by various singers including Chitraji & Jagjitji. I am uploading these in two back-to-back posts. Please note that you can hear some clicking noise in a couple of these ghazals. These are marked with an asterisk. Otherwise the overall quality of these ghazals is very good.
Here is the first set...

Among others, on this concert Jagjitji was accompanied by Chitraji as well as his son Vivek, who died of a tragic accident in July 1990.

Jagjitji was in an upbeat mood during this concert. This is evident as he shares some jokes with audience during the concert. An example of this, in this album, the ghazal "Saare Pind". Jagjitji shares couple of jokes before he starts the song.
One of my favorite ghazals from this album is the song sung by Chitraji & Jagjitji, "Suna Tha". Here is this and other ghazals from this fine album...

Zulf Ke Saye Saye (1983)
I have only four songs from this film that I am uploading here. I don't have too many details of this movie except that its music was composed by Mohinderjit Singh. Well, who is Mohinderjit Singh?
Mohinderjit Singh (photo given below) is a singer, composer and violinist. He was trained by Husnlal Bhagatram as an instrumentalist and Hindustani vocalist. He composed music mostly for TV serials. His work was published as albums by many popular labels like BMG, CBS, T Series, etc. One of his songs, called “Sadbhavana”, with the theme of love and compassion for the country, was given the status of a National Song.
He invented a new musical instrument called “Naad Yogini” that on the surface looks like a violin. A description given on the instrument noted that it has “all the pathos of a violin, the resonance of a cello, and the smoothing seductiveness of a sarangi and a flute.”
I have listed in the table below the missing songs in red italics. If these are from this film, and if you can share, please kindly do so. Thanks.
Here are the four songs from this film...

Goonj (1989)
I have serious misgivings about Jagjitji being the co-music director along with Biddu for this film. Their expertise seems to be poles apart and that is where I have problems. Except for the soul stirring magnificent Manna’s song and the title music, the album is mostly western in nature. It is hard to imagine Jagjitji giving music to any of these numbers. However, I could be very wrong about this. I did check various references on this. Most of them credit both Jagjitji and Biddu as the music directors for the film. I couldn’t get hold of the actual movie to verify this. May be someone can help clarify the situation.
Irrespective of these lingering doubts, here are the songs from this album…

Beyond Time
This is yet another beautiful album from Chitraji & Jagjitji. It has 12 lovely ghazals. All ghazals use either at the start or at the ending sounds of waves of an ocean. I will upload these in three back-to-back posts.
Incidentally, Asharani Mathur edited a book on Jagjitji of almost same name as that of this album. The book's complete name is "Beyond Time. The Ageless Music of Jagjit Singh". Lataji wrote a forword to this book. A couple of lines from this foreword are worth quoting here. Lataji wrote that "...The world of music would not be complete without ghazals. The world of ghazals would not be complete without Jagjit Singh..."

Hare Krishna... Hare Krishna...
Jagjitji released couple of albums in late 1990's with titles "Hare Krishna... Hare Krishna..." and "Hare Krishna... Hare Rama...". Even though titles sound almost the same, they are quite different albums. I am uploading today the devotional dhun from the first album. The second album will come at a later time.
This album has only one dhun, a lengthy one of nearly 38 minutes in duration. I split it into two parts and will upload them in two back-to-back posts. However, each of the post contains nearly 19 minutes long dhun. Therefore I have to split them into two parts each.

Black Magic (Also Known As "Passions")
Before their son's tragic death one of the characteristics of albums of Chitraji & Jagjitji was to have English names for their titles. This trend continued starting from their debut album "The Unforgettables" in 1976. "Black Magic" was originally released in LP. Later it was released in CD as "Passions".
"Black Magic" ("Passions") has eight beautiful ghazals in it. I will upload them in two back-to-back posts. Incidentally the ghazal "Jawaani Ke Heele" in the first post reminds one of Rafi Saab's classic beauty "Kahin Ek Maasoom Naazuk Si Ladki" from the film "Shankar Husain (1977)".
