Dear Mr Binod,

When someone like you, a man who lives by music (and possibly food), takes the trouble of visiting a smal thread like this one, it certainly is time for great rejoicing!

And so here is a popular song of Shamshad from the film Patanga.

The 16th Gem of Shamshad Begum

On the happy occasion of Independence Day, but equally sad of the day of partition of the country it is difficult to choose a song that can reflect both the joy and the anguish of the historical moment. I do not think any song is there to do justice to the event in the true sense.

And Shamshad has no such songs in her armour. here I present a solo of her which brings out the agony of a soul in cheerful garden of life...

SuDeo:

Just call me Binod. No "Mr", "Ji" or even "Jee." Thanks for your kind words. But I do not deserve such accolades. I am only an old man trying to appreciate some good music, especially that which has been un- or under-appreciated. In the process I am trying to learn something new through exploration and discovery.

My kids have taught me recently to love the "innocent mischief" or the "mischievous innocence" captured by Shamshad Begum's voice. I am beginning to be addicted by the infectious charm in her singing style. No wonder OP Nayyar had so much glowing praise for her voice. I think I've had too much of Lata already. I also like Suraiya, Geeta, Noor Jehan, and Sudha Malhotra.

Please continue your laudable efforts and propel us in the direction of this exciting journey. Thanks.


Binod.

Dear Binod,

Thanks for your sparing your invaluable time for my small time thread. I am glad that you do loike these old playback singers who were in their prime in the 1940s and early 1950s. In the Suraiya and Noor Jehan threads also I have uploaded some nice songs. If even one of them is not in your present collection I will feel greatly elated!

And so your grandchildren have made aware of the entirely different quality of Shamshad Begum's voice! That is very amusing and interesting! These little ones must be a charming lot...

Subhash G. Deo

Subhash Ji, I have just downloaded ' Na bol pi pi more angna...' and found the song is taged wrongly, It is the song 'Holi aai re aai re holi, suna de zara baansuri'.

Dear Shri Inaam Ji,

I am extremely sorry about the mix up! I do not know how it could have happened. I will upload the 'Na bol pi pi' after checkin the song.
