एक सागर है, आवाज़ का, जिसमे डूबे ही रहने को मन करता है।
These are times to be thankful. And to feel blessed. That we are living in the times when this treasure of music was created. We continue to search and explore and continue finding gems, obscure gems, unheard gems, lost gems – songs that were once created with a lot of enthusiasm and zeal. Yes, these are times to feel blessed that these gems are available and accessible. I am really anxious about the day, and shrink away from the thought – the day when we will have no more songs of Rafi Sb to post. Life will continue, no doubt. It has a relentlessness built into it. But then, we will be carrying with us, an emptiness – that there are no more “unheard” songs to search for.

Today (19 july 2015) is the seventh birth anniversary of this blog. It was started on this day in 2008.
As mentioned in earlier posts today, there was no celebration in the blog when it turned one year old. We began to celebrate the anniversaries from subsequent years. The sixth year celebration, viz the celebration last year in july 2015 was on a grand and ambitious scale. It on on that occasion that the blog touched the magical mark of TEN THOUSAND songs.

When I started collecting cassettes in 1985, I was very crazy about purchasing of cassettes at regular intervals; I was always searching for songs of old films (especially of Rajesh Khanna films at that time).
It was my practice, beginning from 8th standard onwards that I would take up some part time job during my vacations which I would give up as classes would resume. I had taken up a part time job during the vacation period after class 12th as well, but unlike the previous years, I did not go back to my classes this time, rather I continued with this job since I was aware that I was going to fail in my exams.

Hearty greetings to all friends and readers for the gracious festival of Id today.
The days of fasting and penance have ended, and now comes the grand celebration of Id. Today is the first day of the month of Shawwal. Today is the day when festive spirit is at its most cheerful, the attire of the people is the finest, and more than anything, the bonhomie and the bonds of friendship are at their best. It is the time to leave behind any differences and the memories of any past offenses, to forgive and to forget the resentments. As the lines of this celebratory song emphasize,
ye wo din hai ke hans hans kar giley shiqwe bhula dena
agar dushman bhi aa jaaye to ye keh kar manaa lena
id ki shaam hai
Today is the day to forget the resentments with a smile
Even if an enemy comes face to face
Give a hug and reconcile, and say
It is the day of Id today

This is a song from the film Aplam Chaplam-1961. Talat and Lata sing with chorus, under the baton of composer Chitragupta.
If I ever make lists of composers under different headings like, Melody, Tune,Orchestra, Interludes etc, the first 5 names under the heading “Melody “would be, Ravi, Hansraj Behl, Khemchand Prakash, Anil Biswas and Chitragupta ( not as per any Rankings). Barring Anil Biswas, all the rest four composers never got enough name and fame despite making very melodious music. Chitragupta, Khemchand Prakash and Hansraj Behl got considerably less number of leading production house films compared to what they delivered, in my opinion.

My list of ‘songs that create nostalgia and brings back memories’ include many songs sung by Rafi Saab, viz. ‘jhoomta saawan dekho aaya’, ‘shikaar karne ko aaye shikaar hoke chale’ etc.
The song under discussion today is one of those songs. When this film was released I was one year old, so I think that I must have watched this film when I must be of 5 or 6 years old.
