10 O' Clock, A lot of the songs in this soundtrack Options

[sangeetbhakt]

Film: 10 o' clock (1958)
*ring: Geeta Bali, Suresh, Sheikh Mukhtar
Music: Ram Ganguly
Lyrics: Shyam Hindi, Khaavar ZamaaN, Varma Malik

The only interesting part of this film was the effervescent Geeta Bali.
I do not even remember the storyline of this film, all I recall was the
energy of the heroine. This was an actress that one did not tire
of easily.
I picked up this film when I was going through a phase of simply
picking films that were B/W in the hope of finding decent music.
Well, I kind of hit paydirt with this film. The songs are all above average
with a couple of brilliant songs.
Mohammad Rafi sounds fantastic in his duet with Geeta Dutt. Asha has
a fantastic sad solo. I am sure EMI does not know where the originals
of this soundtrack, so sadly it will probably not be released. The copy of
the film that I saw was poor with cuts and skips and jumps. So that is
also reflected in the quality of the songs. I did a lot of splicing and cutting
to clean up the songs.

The only song mentioned in the Geetkosh that I could not find in the version
of the film that I saw was a Geeta Dutt solo "HoNThoN pe laali hai, aaNkh bhi
kaali hai". The GK mentions one more Geeta song "Chikki chikki" but I believe
it is the same as "Meri akhiyoN ke Dore gulaabi" which is uploaded here.

Enjoy the music.

Track 6:
Asha Bhonsle - ChaaNd nikla sitaare dheeme paDe
Lyricist: Shyam Hindi

THis is my favorite track in the film. My fondness for Asha's voice is no
secret to anybody on the Asha forum. However, my liking for this song
is not based on my bias. It is a lovely tune, beautifully sung. I only
wish this tune had been given to Asha in the late 60s/early 70s when her
voice had matured even further.

The song was unfortunately the worst affected part of the tape. To make
matters worse, the song is split in the film in 2 places. Thanx to Goldwave,
I spent a couple of hours splicing pieces together to create the version that
I am uploading. It hopefully mirrors the original recording of the song.
Interestingly, most of the skips in the song are NOT at the points where I
spliced but due to the bad quality of the film.
