Also, my favourite Hindi records appreciation blog, Music From The Third Floor, reviews lots of Hindi funk and cabaret albums. No point for duplication, I say (though I may still upload duplicate albums, with my own slant of the music). Make sure you check out this awesome site to get your fix of Bollywood music too.
Back to this album. The music is from Shankar Jaikishan and the lyrics are from Shailendra and Hasrat Jaipuri. It’s really hard for me to say which are my favourite song/s from this OST, for I think all the songs are quite melodious, especially for that vintage where most composers were trying to revolutionise the Hindi music industry with the new wave of music coming from the west. If I had to chose, my preferences would be the ‘Bol Meri Taqdeer Mein Kya Hai’ duet and ‘Allah Jane Kya Hoga Aage’. I think Mukesh and Lata just sizzle. What do you think? Oh, and I want to thrown in ‘Kho Gaya Hai Mera Pyar’ too. Only because I so love Mahendra Kapoor’s voice!!!

Another great one, thanks Veen :) I haven't seen this film in a while but I remember liking it, especially for the songs.
My pleasure Greta. I remember watching this as a child and I think a revisit is on the cards!
Thanks Veen. Like Memsaab, me too would like to watch this just for the lovely songs.

No probs Babu. I have to admit....I too would like to watch the movie again. In fact, I just bought a copy on eBay and can't wait for it to arrive!
Hi,
Thanks for this album. Interesting thing (or perhaps even confusing)...the LP Back-cover that you posted only has 8 tracks. However, your file has 9 songs, with the extra song being "Parwano Ki Raah Mein", not listed in the LP cover. Also, this 9th unlisted song is tagged incorrectly, it is sung by Asha Bhosle and not Lata Mangeshkar. :-)
Oh well, consider it a freebie. Must have zipped an extra song.
