THE TRAIN - R.D.Burman 1970

1st Pressing - 1970 Original sound track on FLP 1005A. This one in almost Near Mint Condition is from my own collection.

 

Speed :  33rpm

 

Music Director : R.D.Burman

 

Lyrics By: Anand Bakshi

Check! The hardest rocking Burman soundtrack of all times! And when do you ever see this on eBay? Mad rare! The OST that lanched for the first time Burman's groundbreaking new Nightclub Cabaret Music style for Bombay Vamp Helen.

 

With the absolute killer track 'O Meri Jaan', an insane Dancefloor Filler . It kicks of with a devastatingly loud super funky ultra heavy horns section that will tear down your roof and knock down your walls (and it returns in every interlude!). Through a string of Psychedelic Organ Beeps, Sparking Guitar, Bongo Firework and Hindi Violins it whirls into a absolutely crazy Duet between Maestro Burman and Asha. What a ball they had! Burman in his lunatic Mehbooba style, Asha in her exceedingly naughty flirting style. (This was of course the time of their secret affair) Hilareaously spontanious and rocking the House. Besides that the album contains good Burman percussion samples, a very pleasant beaty Mohm. Rafi song, and another Asha Nightclub track with amazing rhythm & numerous interludes & all. Recommended!

Note: the Train was the one of the first soundtracks to be released India by Polydor, after Odeon/Emi had ruled the Indian market for decades. They felt very threatened and even released a 7" with cover versions of the Train sung by other singers!!

Please note this is the ORIGINAL 1ST PRINT. This LP The Train had couple of re-issues as well,but in terms of the shellac quality and the audio output the 1st Press beats all hands down.
