Today’s song is a Manna Dey NFS.
We have just completed 2 years without the Ace Singer, Manna Dey. He left us on 24-10-2013. He was probably the last of the Golden Age male singers, who started singing in the 40s. I called him an Ace singer and most readers would agree with it too, but Manna Dey never got rated as the No 1, or 2 or 3 or even 4th singer. Every A grade composer agreed that he was a great singer, but no one would call him to sing a song, on a regular basis. Though Manna Dey sang for almost every composer of his times, he was neither a favourite of any Music Director, nor did any top actor insist for him as a playback singer of his choice. So, strangely, while recognition was there, results were not matching !

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

In my childhood and growing years thereafter I was very fond of listening to songs on Radio (Transistor). Other than ‘Binaca Geetmala’, some of the programs that I regularly listened to were S. Kumar’s ka filmi mukaddama, ek hi film ke geet, etc etc.
Other than filmi songs I used to listen mainly to BBC London service for news and especially for news on ‘cricket’ (‘khel samachar’).
Now, on recalling those days, I think that I started with this love for Radio when I was 9/10 yrs old, i.e. from 1977-78. It continued up to 1986 when I bought my first mono-cassette player (Philips). TV had invaded our lives by that time and I think that our first TV- a color Uptron TV- also came in 1986-87.

Before today, I had only heard the name. Poring through the lists of artists, one comes across so many names, and so many times, one just skips over and goes ahead.
Today, I heard his voice for the first time. And simply fell in love with it. It started with this song, and then in search of this voice, I went over the online resources, and got a chance to hear more of his songs, most of them in chaste Punjabi. And I am thinking, what misfortune that I never got introduced to this voice earlier.

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # 11 # Duet-1 Hemlata, Suresh Wadkar

For this post I was specially looking for a ‘duet’ and I think this ‘lighthearted’ and ‘typical Ravindra Jain musical’ fits in this series of ‘seventies’ very much. This one is from the 1978 Film ‘Madhu Maalti’ sung by Suresh Wadkar and Hemlata. Listening to this song reminds us of the popular “Vrishti Pade Tapor Tupur” from the film ‘Paheli’ (1977), by same team.

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # 2 # Talat Mehmood-1

This is the second offering in this series. My primary focus in this series is to introduce those films from the decade 1971-1980 that are yet to make a debut on the blog.
But instead of going chronologically I willdiscuss these songs in sequence in which I noticed them in HFGK Vol-V. And of course, special songs are to be discussed first.
And today’s song is definitely a special one – a devotional song in the ‘velvet voice’ – now this one really came to me as surprise when I read the first song in the list under this film’s name in HFGK. The singer was none other than Talat Mehmood.

Today (11 february 2015) is the birth anniversary of Tina Munim , now Tina Ambani (DoB 11 february 1957). It appears as if it was only yesterday that she made her debut in “Des Pardes”(1978). But it turns out that 37 years have passed since !

In one of my earlier posts I had mentioned that I was working on ‘Pancham – Rafi Jodi’ songs.
Considerable time has been elapsed since- almost 2 years in fact from the time this idea was thought about by me for the first time.
Finally the idea takes off today.
