Anil Biswas, one of the pioneers of Hindi movie music once opined that Sajjad Hussain and Jaidev were the most talented music directors in his opinion. Coming from Anil Biswas, it was high praise indeed.

Aap ki yaad aati rahi raat bhar

I thought that there should be at least one song of Jaidev from a film for which he got National Award for the best music direction, for discussion on the occasion of his death anniversary which is on January 6th. The ghazal is from film GAMAN (1978) – “Aapki yaad aati rahi raat bhar”. The ghazal was wriiten by Maqdoom Mohiuddin, the famous urdu poet and then a member of Communist Party of India. This has been sung by many ghazal singers but I like the way Chhaya Ganguli has sung this ghazal and also the tune and soft orchestra used by Jaidev to reflect the mood of the ghazal.
