The arguments would be never ending between a Rafi fan or a Kishore fan, but for me it is Rafi all the way. Other than the usual suspects my favourites include "Tum Mujhe Yoon/Pagla Kahin Ka, Yeh Jo Chilman Hai/Mehboob Ki Mehendi, Ek Haseen Shaam Ko/Dulhan Ek Raat Ki). <BR/><BR/>Nice follow up, btw with the Mallu connection to Hindi music.Vatsahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01419045276401159397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1744855153026873665.post-65893189081136514282008-09-05T13:58:00.000+05:302008-09-05T13:58:00.000+05:30there is so much rafi has sung that is brilliant.....there is so much rafi has sung that is brilliant...<BR/>mein zindagi ka saath nibhaata chalagaya, mein kahi kavi na ban jaoon tere pyaar mein hai kavita ; ehsaan tera hoga mujpar; zindagi bhar nahi bhoolegi; <BR/><BR/>thank you for reminding us...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1744855153026873665.post-26486390729370650232008-08-23T21:24:00.000+05:302008-08-23T21:24:00.000+05:30@Padmaja: All singers of that era were outstanding...@Padmaja: All singers of that era were outstanding with their own distinct style.

It is amazing that he could lend his voice to Johnny Walker with as much grace as he used to sing for Dilip Kumar. And who can forget his trademark mischievous rendition for Shammi Kappor's antics. Truly a class apart.<BR/>Sadly the void left by the trio of Rafi/Kishore/Mukesh is still to be filled.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13836349919744331494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1744855153026873665.post-66061124474838955772008-08-15T13:59:00.000+05:302008-08-15T13:59:00.000+05:30Yes, music unites.Yes, music unites.Cynic in Wonderlandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17544348501114907088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1744855153026873665.post-53670759470157922092008-08-15T12:26:00.000+05:302008-08-15T12:26:00.000+05:30Rafi is one of my favourites too..
