Music From The Third Floor: Vol. 1

Music From The Third Floor: Vol. 1

Taking stock, some 30 albums down the road... quite a bit of good stuff has been posted I think, some bloody marvelous in fact, and of course some not so good. So partly for my own sake, and partly because someone asked me to, I've compiled a best of/sampler kind of thing; 75 minutes worth of my favourites so far, totally subjective, making no pretence at being representative of anything other than my own preferences at this particular moment in time. Made to fit onto a CD-R.

I reckon this project will eventually result in 5 or 6 of these...

Track listing:
1. Title Music (from Teesri Manzil)
2. Hum Se Kar Le Dosti (from Chori Chori)
3. Gulabi Raat Gulabi (from Upkar)
4. Tere Bina Jiya (from Ghar)
5. Ankhen Meri Maikhana (from Sawan Bhadon)
6. O Babuaa Yeh Mahua (from Sadma)
7. Chura Liya Hai Tum Ne (from Yaadon Ki Baaraat)
8. Cabaret Dance Music (from Dharmatma)
9. Hello Darling (from Darling Darling)
10. Kiss Kiss (from Tumse Achha Kaun Hai)
11. Mere Jeevan Saathi (from Saathi)
12. Aplam Chaplam (from Azad)
13. Mera Naam Hai Shabnam (from Kati Patang)
14. Come Closer (from Kasam Paida Karnewale Ki)
15. Mera Raja Beta Boojhe Ek Paheli (from Anuraag)
16. Theme Music (from Anita)

Listen on Mixcloud.

Cover star: Asha Parekh (from 'Kati Patang', 1970)

  2. And a lovely cover.

    Those interested in another good starting point should see Bollywood for the Skeptical.

  4. Got 40 meg down and it just crapped out all of a sudden, now Easyshare refuses to speak to me. :( Is there a mirror somewhere I can try?

  5. Easy-share does go a bit wonky on occasion - I think if you try again in an hour, it should work. I hope. But let me know if it doesn't.

  18. Four tries at this and hardly get any of the file. Looks like a great comp; wish I could get it! Maybe an alternate link at Rapidshare or Badongo or elsewhere? Thanks.
