Nice post...SS ! I couldn't agree with you more because even I believe that KK has been the most versatile and talented artist Bollywood has seen. KK was so much more than just a singer and that's why I don't understand all the more why people are always comparing KK to other singers, mainly Rafi.
Kishore was my absolute favorite till just a few years ago (when I was a teen) because I could relate to 70's style music more back then and Kishore ruled in the 70's. But even though he was my favorite back then and listened mostly to his songs, it was always clear that Rafi was the greatest singer just because he had the most ideal singing voice, limitless range, great expression in his voice and an effortlessness in singing which nobody else had or has. Kishore was a great great singer too (bettered only by Rafi and nobody else) but was found out in many genres (ghazals, bhajans, qawwalis etc.). But then again, I have always regarded Kishore as a genius because he excelled in so many other fields. I don't think anyone else has managed that yet in Bollywood. Again...I don't mean to start a debate here because I absolutely love the Guru, his songs and his movies. I have noticed that this is a great forum with very nice and friendly people and I just wanted to express my humble opinions in a free and candid fashion. Salute to the Most versatile and gifted Bollywood Artist (Sampoorn Kalaakar) KK on his B'day !! |
