For those who were worried about a possible volte-face in Mr. Vijaykar's
attitude when it came to his nemesis Pancham - here's the latest disc review in
Screen:

================================
For the entire article go to:
http://www.screenindia.com/news/screen-choice-of-the-week/487222/

Kabhie To Hasaye… KabhiTo Rulaye
Universal, Rs 250 (2 CD set)
This collection is supposed to commemorate the 70th death anniversary of Rahul
Dev Burman. Just like the alleged tribute film Dil Vil Pyaar Vyaar was titled
after another composer's hit, this one's named after a Salil Chowdhury
evergreen! Well, let it pass, because that's the name of a compilation series
that comes from a Universal-Saregama (the oldest music labels) collaboration.
Coming to the collection, the songs are 24 of the common hits of Pancham
featured in umpteen such albums with none of his novel, rarer, forgotten or
unsung gems included from either label's repertoire, with the exception of the
mediocre Aayi aayi aayi teri yaad aayi (Romance). So go for a good mix of RD
hits, but not for an album that gives you a peek into his special genius. Better
research was needed in view of the momentous occasion.

======================================

I guess we need to request him to stop reviewing discussing Pancham if it hurts
him so much. What is the point of this review?

He bickers on the title of the cassette (after being reminded of his Aap Ke
Anurodh Pe article). And then goes on to spit venom at Pancham in the name of
demonstrating disdain of the compilation "not doing justice" to Pancham's birth
anniversary.

The guy's simply outta control and the verbal Diarrhea continues - someone pass
the Pepto Bismol!

Well he had to do it some day - so what we over here thought was correct - it was something of a Haj ko chali effort. The only thing I wish to point out is...

It could be I am a bit more biased in a different way - may be what I have heard is what I think people have heard. I havent heard the Kala Sona Track or the...

Very true - once you get in the habit of listening to Pancham 1-2 hours most days - and have heard most of all songs - its hard to imagine someone who has not...

Prasun, You gave me my teenage memory back of Sholay. However, the censor date was 15/08/1975. Yep, because this movie was an independence day release in...

But I am sure if Universal came up with a tribute for Bappi Lahiri or Laxmi-Pyare - the result is guaranteed to be as clumsy as the one for Pancham. Hi Shashi,...

HI Shashi, Your observations on the quality of song compilations are, as always, precise and correct. It's tragic that the lion's share of HFM music of the...
