Muse & Music
Most film loving folks think that the music made for films from 50’s through 80’s represents golden age of music. This may be debatable. However, one thing is certain. Several great musicals emerged during this period and we saw the rise of many singing legends during this time. One way to take a closer look at the music of the Golden Age is to look into the period through the female stars who were popular in this time frame. Because it is just about impossible to cater for all the stars, I came to a conclusion that probably the following 12 stars will sufficiently represent movies that are part of this golden era. These are: Asha Parekh Hema Malini Mala Sinha Mumtaz Nutan Rekha Sadhana Saira Banu Sharmila Tagore Vyjayanti Mala Waheeda Rehman Zeenat Aman Others may come up with a different list. But for the music of the Golden Age I want to share with our fellow members these stars probably make a fair representation. Let us look at filmographies of these actresses and see if we can come to some conclusions. I will present the filmographies in the order listed above. |

Amma Kosam (1970) - A Telugu Movie
Rekha's second film also was in Telugu. This time she had the lead role. I am uploading seven songs from this album here. The music for this album was composed by Aadi Narayana Rao who became famous and wellknown with the cinegoing folks throughout India with that smashing score of score of "Suvarna Sundari". These songs are from a LP. Almost all songs are of pretty good quality. The song "Ade Ade" had a slight click at about 1 minute 50 seconds into that song. This is the only blemish in all the songs. Balasubramanyam (also called as Balu) was a relative newcomer at the time these songs were recorded. You can see how tender his voice is. Here is description of the songs and the songs themselves ...
