Best Bappi album?

Guessed that you haven't listened to Bappida's Disco Dancer LP. DD is undoubtedly the best album.

I do hope all of us are enjoying the festive season. Let the music flow along with the happiness. Last few days listened to my small collection of 78 rpm shellacs. They always sound good, notwithstanding the surface noise! Played through my Dual 1019, a trusty old ( March1968) steed, which does need gentle care every years or so. Though it has a (very bearable) motor drone, it makes up, and more, by the solidity of the sound and a typical idler drive slam. Raaz , Farz, Upkar, Guide, Madhumati, Andaz and many others took me down a gentler era of National Ecko radios, HMV Safari record players and Weston ( Faridabad) compact cassette players.

Disco Dancer was an iconic LP. Very well recorded, too

I actually prefer Bappi’s non Disco music as a whole. However I think it’s cool he also created Bappi-Disco, a style within itself. Hindi film music became a lot more saccharine post the 80’s.

I have Disco Dancer too and the pressing is great on HMV. Dance Dance is when T Series used to do good pressings.

Comparing only the two, Dance Dance is more international whereas Disco Dancer more Indian. I like Dance Dance for having Alisha Chinai who does a great job.

Superb album of OPN. Never gets played for some reason.

Listening to some Japanese city-pop, ambient music and jazz fusion from the 70s.

Would you say Patthar Ke Phool is one of the best 90’s recorded vinyl? Tips on White Label I have heard is great.

Good morning and a Happy Festive Season to all friends. Revisited Talat Mahmood, ' In a Blue Mood'. I have both an Angel (well used on ceramic) and an Odeon. Regardless, Talat sahab's mellifluous voice, "Raat ne Kya kya Khwab Dikhaye" takes you back to a different era. A must listen. This was heard on an Audio Technica AT 396 mag cart with an aftermarket Astatic .7 mil stylus. Since this cart is bass heavy, it does make some Bollywood recordings better, in my perception.

Yes. Phattar ke Phool is a nice recording.

My system keeps changing so it is very difficult to give a comparison but yes , a very nice recording. The emotions in the voices are really felt . The PRaT , especially in the mumbai geography lesson is very enjoyable.

Today's fare

Listening to Kishore Kumar Live in LA and Lata Mangeshkar Live at Albert Hall. Listening to this after approx 30 years.
