Laxmikant Pyarelal: Amar Deep (1979)

Amar Deep

An OK score from Laxmikant Pyarelal. The songs on 'Amar Deep' don't rock my boat all that much, with the possible exception of 'Dunia Hai Bewafai' which is quite good... it has a nice funky pop flavour to it. Elsewhere, there are cool details (good for sampling perhaps), like the 'Psycho' strings and acoustic guitar on the intro of 'Koi Na Tere' plus a bit of heavy percussion, the (somewhat cheesy) Latin touches in 'Tum Na Manoge', and the intro (again) and jagged rhythm of 'Halke Se Kasak Masak'... but they don't really go anywhere. So a case of the whole being less than the sum of its parts...still worth a listen though.

Track listing:
1. Kishore Kumar: Koi Na Tere
2. Kishore Kumar & Anuradha: Tum Na Manoge
3. Kishore Kumar & Lata Mangeshkar: Halke Se Kasak Masak
4. Asha Bhosle: Dunia Hai Bewafai
