LAXMIKANT PYARELAL AND MOHAMMED RAFI WERE INSTRUMENTAL IN EACH OTHERS SUCCESS. NOT THAT RAFISAAB WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL WITHOUT LP BUT THIS LETHAL COBINATION OF LP WITH RAFI CREATED THE GOLDEN ERA OF MUSIC. PROBABLY THE DUO OF SHANKAR JAIKISHAN WERE THE ONES WHO GAVE THE TYPICAL COMMERCIAL TOUCH TO HINDI FILM MUSIC WHICH WAS THEN CARRIED FORWARD BY L-P AT ITS PEAK IN THE 80'S. I AM A GREAT FAN OF SHANKAR-JAIKISHAN, LAXMIKANT -PYARELAL, RAFISAHAB AND LATAJI. I WAS SAD THAT THE WORLD HAD FORGOTTEN THESE LEGENDS AND THEY ARE NOT HOUNOURED BY THE FILM INDUSTRY. NOW IS THE AGE OF THE RESHMIYAS, SHANKAREHSAANLOYS,VISHAL SHEKHARS AND OTHERS WHO DONT LAST FOR MORE THAN COUPLE OF YEARS. IT WOULD BE WORTHWILE MENTIONING HERE THAT L-P RULED OVER HE INDUSTRY FOR MORE THAN 3 DECADES WHICH IS NOT EASY PARTICULARLY CONSIDERING THAT THEY HAD STIFF COMPETITION FROM KALYANJI ANANDJI, RDBURMAN, SHANKAR JAIKISHAN, RAJESH ROSHAN, RAVI, MADAN MOHAN AND OTHERS. THE SUCESS OF THIS DOU LIES IN THE FACT THEY KEPT ON CHANGING THEIR STYLE OF COMPOSING SONGS WITH TIME AND EVEN SINGERS LIKE SHABBIR KUMAR WON FILM FARE AWARD FOR THEIR SONGS FOR PYAR JHUKTA NAHIN. I AM REALLY VERY HAPY TO KNOW THAT THERE ARE ATLEAST SOME FANS LIKE ME WHO REMEMBER THESE LEGENDS.NOW I UNDERSTAND THAT PYARELALJI IS GOING TO COMPOSE FOR SUBHASH GHAI'S FORTHCOMING FILM. I AM SURE THAT ONCE AGAIN THE NAME OF L-P WILL SHINE. IF ANY RAFI FAN WANTS TO GET IN TOUCH WITHME MY EMAIL ID IS kaptivepower@yahoo.co.in SUSHIL SAYS.

This is the second time that I am going to comment about the master, who I had the privilege as a child to watch on stage at Bradford’s St George’s Hall, West Yorkshire [UK]. I actually grew up listening to his melodious voice as it soared all around me, whether I was watching a movie or listening to the radio set. There came a time in my life when I was just ten years old, that I got the chance of watching Muhammad Rafi [The Legend] live on stage and in person performing live to a captivated audience. I had to be forced to go by one of my family friends who had bought 2 tickets for us both, so he literally had to twist my arm into going with him. However whilst attending the gig I was totally baffled at what I had just experienced on stage, he was right ahead of me… yes Muhammad Rafi Sahab singing live. He kicked off the show with ‘Bari Door Se Aaye Hain’, followed by many of his recent hits and past famous songs such as ‘Hum Bekhudi Main Sanam’, ‘Parda Hai Parda’, ‘Hum To Chale Pardes’, ‘Kiya Hua Tera Vaada’, ‘Sar Par Topi Lal Rumal’, ‘O Duniya Ke Rakhwale’, ‘Punjabi track’, and some other hits. It’s been a long time now and for a ten year old it’s very hard to remember, but I never ever forgot that memorable night as some of it’s contents were captured onto one of those old movie cameras. Which were later distributed onto vhs tapes in the 80’s and sold for ridiculous high prices to anyone interested in buying a copy. My dear father bought himself a copy of that recording which I’ve watched innumerable times over the last 25 years or so, but my vhs tape is failing me now in 2007. So I am going to have it’s contents transferred onto dvd format, once I manage to grab myself a good machine… it’s been over 2 months now since my last post in December 2006, but would you believe it – I’m still looking for one. Once it’s been transferred entirely all onto dvd quality format, I can then distribute it by offering it to any buyers who will be interested in buying themselves a rare recording of the legendary Muhammad Rafi live in concert. Before all that I would like to put some clips on you tube first, just to give you a small little taste of what’s to come in the near future. You may email me whenever you have the time altaf786hussain@hotmail.co.uk MUHAMMAD RAFI – LIVE IN CONCERT

Full credit goes to the team of LP to have been with Rafi Sahab from the Parasmani, Dosthi days to the last few days of immortal Rafi sahab in Aaspaas. In fact due to LP domination that other MDs like R.D.Burman had to use Rafi Sahab after few years of absence during the Rajesh Khanna days of early 70s. Incredible but it is true that Lataji n Rafi sahab remained the duos favourite singer till the last date.They were instrumental in giving the best of the duets like Shanker Jaikishens in the 50s and 60s with the bollywoods best playback singers Rafi sahab n Lataji.
