Kaahe akela dolat baadal

In olden days, professions like “Gramophone Singer”, “Station Master”, “Taxi Driver”,”Trolly Driver” etc were quite coveted ones. We in fact have Hindi movies with such titles. So far we have discussed songs from “Station Master” (1942), “Taxi Driver” (1954) and “Trolly Driver” (1958) in the blog. Here is a song from “Gramophone Singer” (1938).

The Voice of Mukesh #3
—————————-
As I come in to the third post in this series, I must put on record that I have still not been able to trace and secure a recording of the second duet from the film ‘Dukh Sukh’ (1942). The duet – “Mori Atariyaa Pe Aa Jaa, O Pardesi Panchhi”, is sung with Sitara. And I repeat my request to my friends and fellow contributors on this blog, to please inform in case one has any information about the availability of this song. I am hopeful we shall get to hear this song, since the physical record number is known – N26105. Right now, just waiting for the luck to strike.

It’s been a while since my last post here. And I feel pretty bad about it. Somehow, in the last month (or more), I’ve just not been able to generate the required mental juice to be able to come up with anything worth putting on paper (or on electronic media). Had Shakespeare been around and had one look at me, he’d have promptly coined something like “Listlessness, thou hast what human spirit conquer’d, For Man knoweth not whence he cometh, and where he goeth”.

The Voice of Mukesh #2
——————————–
Listening to the first song of Mukesh, ‘Dil Hi Bujhaa Huaa Ho To Fasl e Bahaar Kyaa’ from the film ‘Nirdosh’ (1941), one is suitably impressed by this maiden effort from a singer, whom we now know as a stalwart of the Hindi film music. But back then in 1941, this debut happened singularly unacknowledged, failing to impress the public, the music directors and film producers. With Saigal Saab’s voice reigning supreme at that time, most people wrote off this voice as another Saigal imitator, trying to make it good with a voice sounding like the great icon. And what with the icon still in full bloom and alive, this song by Mukesh failed to evoke any great level of interest. And so started the career of Mukesh, unimpressive and indifferent.
