I have experienced this many times, and maybe you too could have experienced the same. The music of his songs has the quality to transport the listener to another place, another time. Just close your eyes and relax – and listen to a song like “Parbaton Ke Pedon Par Shaam Ka Baseraa Hai”(film ‘Shagoon’, 1964). The flowing waves of music will transport the listener to a vista of hills and trees with the sun slowly descending the western horizon. Or the song “Bahaaro, Mera Jeevan Bhi Sanwaaro” (film ‘Aakhri Khat’, 1966). Or the song “Apne Aap Raaton Mein Chilmanein Sarakti Hain” (film ‘Shankar Hussain’, 1976). Or the song “Simti Hui Ye Ghadiyaan” film ‘Chambal Ki Kasam’, 1979). Or the song “Aa Jaa Re Aa Jaa Re O Mere Dilbar Aa Jaa”(film ‘Noorie’, 1979). Or the quintessential gem “Shaam-e-Gham Ki Kasam, Aaj Ghamgeen Hain Hum” film ‘Footpath’, 1953).

Ae dil bata kisko karoon pyaar

This blog has 78 songs composed by Sajjad Hussain and that leaves about 20 more Sajjad Hussain songs that are yet to be covered.
These remaining songs are rare songs that are difficult to find and they may be available only with private dedicated collectors. I had mentioned in one of my earlier posts that I had the privilege of meeting Mr Bakshshish Singh in Sudhir jee’s residence. He has a nice collection of old and obscure songs and he is ever willing to share them. While leaving, he left his portable hard disk with Sudhir jee for him to see what was useful for him. Next day, when I was again in Sudhir Jee’s residence, I looked at the contents of the hard disk and copied some of it as may fit in my pen drive.

The decade of 1950 to 1960 was a feast of Music for HFM lovers. Talented Music directors like C.Ramchandra, S D Burman, Salil Chaudhari, Hemant Kumar, Naushad, Ravi, Chitragupta etc from the A category gave us everlasting melodies. In this deluge of melodies, even the B and C category composers also gave their best artworks in this period.

Until 1970, I was only aware of old Hindi film songs from popular films like ‘Mahal’ (1949), ‘Barsaat’ (1949),’Malhar’ (1951),’Baiju Bawara’ (1952), ‘Ashiana’ (1952), ‘Patita’ (1953), ‘Anarkali’ (1953), ‘Seema’ (1955) and many more of such films. It was only when I was initiated by a friend into some lesser known gems from the films which I have never heard of, my interest in such songs grew. My friend used to arrange periodic meetings of like minded persons, mostly in his house. He had a mind boggling collections of such songs in 78 RPM gramophone records ( I guess, it was nearly 1000 in numbers). He had also had some audio cassettes containing lesser known songs recorded from Radio Ceylon and also from 78 RPM records held by some of his friends. During those meetings, he would select some rare songs and play on his Gerard record changer attached to his radiogram followed by discussions. Since I was a novice in this segment of old Hindi film songs, I was only a listener to those discussions. Later, I became aware of the fact that behind tha facade of popular old Hindi film songs, there exists a big store of lesser known jewels.

I have been on a old movie watching spree recently. So far managed to see “Mere Mehboob” , “Deedar” and “Kaagaz ke Phool”. As it is, it is taking me 2-3 days to complete the film, because I do not like to miss a single scene or dialogue in the film. It has been a longtime wish to see “Kaaghaz ke Phool” which is finally fulfilled. Having seen “Pyaasa” I was somehow expecting a similar pathos laden fare. But this film is lot different as it is rather brighter with the spirit of ‘lights camera action’.
