Starting this topic to discuss some not so easily available songs featuring Mohd. Rafi - from the 1950s and 60s
Please feel free to add songs which you like. Here's one song I found in the film 'Akeli mat jaiyo' 1963 where Rafi partners Asha Bhosle - they sing for Agha and Minoo Mumtaz respectively. The movie stars Rajendra Kumar and Meena Kumari, has music by Madan Mohan ( a few pretty good songs ) and lyrics by Majrooh Sultanpuri. This song is a typical, humorous type, romantic song between the two sidekicks in the movie. Enjoy ! Sri "Jis din is duniya se nafrat aur khudgarzi mit jaayegi, us roz yeh insaan naachega, us roz yeh dharti gaayegi" - Rajinder Krishan (Maa baap 1959)

This is a Rafi song which I used to hear a lot on the radio when it was released in 1969. But very rarely, if ever, have I heard it in recent years. I used to like the song a lot for its tune, orchestration and, of course, the voice of my favourite singer.
I was very happy to get hear this song recently - and wanted to share it with others who may have heard and enjoyed the song in those days ... and others who have never heard the song before. The song is from the movie Ek Shriman Ek Shrimati starring Shashi Kapoor and Babita - and has music which is typically Kalyanji Anandji- ish ( i.e., KA of those days. Their music changed a little ...with the changing times ...during the late 70s ). Lyrics are of Rajinder Krishan .. one of those few prolific lyricists who worked with numerous music directors Enjoy !

Folks,
Here's an energetic Rafi song that I like - from the film Poonam ki raat 1965. The movie starred Manoj Kumar. Lyrics of Shailendra and typical music of Salil Chowdhury - you will see the influence of western classical music in the interlude music and Salil's typically unusual and somewhat 'complicated' combination of notes. As was the general practice with Bengali music directors like Salil and Hemant Kumar ( known as Hemanta Mukherjee in the Bengali music world), this song appeared in Bengali about 2 years before the Hindi version appeared in Rafi's voice. The Bengali version was sung by Shyamal Mitra in 1963 ( Shyamal Mitra later composed music for a few Hindi films like Amanush in 1975) For your interest, there's also a small clip of the Bengali version of the song ( Jodi kichu amarey sudhaao ) Enjoy ! Sri "Jis din is duniya se nafrat aur khudgarzi mit jaayegi, us roz yeh insaan naachega, us roz yeh dharti gaayegi" - Rajinder Krishan (Maa baap 1959)
