The Best Of Music Director Ravi (1984)

Ravi

Other than 'Kaajal' (below), the only other Ravi soundtrack I own is an e.p. - which I vaguely recall being quite good but I'm going to wait a bit before posting. (I need to find it first... after last year's move there are still loads of things that aren't where they're supposed to be). Instead, here's a compilation of songs taken from other scores of his... some quite nice, some a bit dull, most of them low key, none that I find exceptionally exciting if truth be told. A few of them were probably hits though.

Regular services to follow.

Track listing:
1. Asha Bhosle & Mohd. Rafi: Jab Liya Hath Men Hath (from Vachan, 1955)
2. Asha Bhosle: Kaise Kahun Main Baat (from Gehra Daag, 1963)
3. Mohd. Rafi: Yeh Wadiyan Yeh Fizayen (from Aaj Aur Kal, 1963)
4. Lata Mangeshkar: Aap Ki Inayaten (from Vandana, 1975)
5. Lata Mangeshkar: Lo Aagai Unki Yaad (from Do Badan, 1965)
6. Lata Mangeshkar: Badle Badle Mere Sarkar (from Chaudhvin Ka Chand, 1960)
7. Mahendra Kapoor: Aap Aayen (from Gumrah, 1963)
8. Lata Mangeshkar: Ai Mere Dil-E-Nadan (from Tower House, 1962)
9. Mohd. Rafi & Asha Bhosle: Mujhe Pyar Ki Zindagi Denewale (from Pyaar Ka Saagar, 1961)
10. Mohd. Rafi: Husna Se Chand Bhi Sharmaya Hai (from Door Ki Awaz, 1964)
11. Lata Mangeshkar: Hazar Baten Kahe Zamana (from Ghatna, 1974)
12. Mohd. Rafi: Bhala Karne Wale (Ghar Sansar, 1958)
13. Lata Mangeshkar: Sab Kuchh Luta Ke (from Ek Saal, 1957)
14. Salma Agha: Faza Bhi Hai Jawan (from Nikaah, 1982)
15. Mohd. Rafi: Raze Dil Unse (from Apna Banake Dekho, 1962)

  3. Wow, amazing collection. Thanks for sharing these gems.
    As for the songs being 'low key', I would rather categorize them melody oriented with minimal arrangements. You would have to be in certain mood to enjoy these.

    Anyone who likes ghazal type songs is surely gonna this album.
    Thanks again.

  5. I love Ravi, he is one of my favorites...my favorite soundtrack from him would probably be Gumrah. His work is more melody-oriented :-) thanks.
