#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # 4 # Suresh Rajvanshi -1
——————————————————————-

The journey through the HFGK is  getting more excited and thrilling day by day, though so far I have been able to glance through only the few preliminary years of this decade 1971-1980.  And I am realizing that apart from ‘Bhoole Bisre Geet’ we do also have some ‘Bhoole Bisre Artists’, like the singer of this song that is being presented today.

Songs to Tickle Your Memory – 14
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

There are many recipes to make memorable songs.  In my experience, one of them is – a B/C grade stunt film (the more obscure and forgotten, the better), an unfamiliar name of the lyricist, the voice of Rafi Sb, and the music of one of the lesser known music directors.  And voila, you have a fabulous and memorable song.  The song itself may be obscure, unfamiliar and possibly unheard for a long time.  But once you hear it – it is all a ‘wow’.

OK, so there are many a piano songs in Hindi films, and we have seen many an actor play the piano on screen. In this song, I see Pran playing the piano. This is the first time I have seen this happen on screen. Other friends and readers may comment on this, but for me, this is the first time.

Mohammed Rafi – The Incomparable – 6
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Film ‘Benazir’ 1964 has eleven songs – too many by SDB standards and the 60’s fashion.  The theme of a muslim social may have something to do with it.  It could also be the reason that this time SDB paired with Shakeel Badayuni.  Now that I have checked, SDB worked with Shakeel Badayuni in ‘Kaise Kahoon’ (1964) also.  After ‘Pyaasa’ (1957), SD Burman seems to have worked with all major lyrics writers, from Majrooh, Hasrat, Kaifi Azmi, all the way up to Anand Bakshi in the 1970s, in films like ‘Aradhana’ (1969) and ‘Ishq Par Zor Nahin’ (1970).
