Eentje uit Angola’s 1975 is deze met Carlos Lamartine en zijn Conjunto
Merengue. Zij brengen een relaxte vorm van semba, twaalf mellow songs
op ‘Angola Ano 1’. De elpee vertelt het verhaal rond de strijd om onafhan-
kelijkheid. Angola ano 1, Angola jaar 1, alsof de jaartelling opnieuw begon
in 1975. De onafhankelijkheid was een feit maar de onrust duurde door.
Het klinkt cru maar narigheid brengt vaak de mooiste muziek voort ..

Today we have this album from 1975 with Carlos Lamartine and his
Conjunto Merengue. They bring this very relaxed type of semba, twelve
mellow songs on ‘Angola Ano 1’. The record tells the story of the struggle
for independence. Angola ano 1, Angola year 1, the beginning of a new era
in 1975. Independence was a fact but unfortunately instability remained for
a long time. It sounds harsh but trouble often creates beautiful music ..

Have you ever heard of Playback Singing ? Mukesh Chand Mathur,
or in short just Mukesh was one of the most famous playback singers
in the Bollywood Indian Movie industry. It means he recorded the songs
and the actor would playback, or lip-sync the song on camera. Mukesh
himself never appeared on screen. On this EMI / Odeon release we find
14 songs used in 14 different movies. The songs were written by various
composers like, Salil Chowdhury , Shankar Jaikishan , Hansraj Bahal,
Naushad, Madan Mohan , Ravi , Roshan, Ram Ganguli and S.D. Burman .
Behind the songtitles, I give you the movies they were extracted from.
Enjoy listening and reading the story behind it same time ..

P.S.
Some complaints about download problems lately.
Not long ago we moved the complete site and its contents
to another server. Sometimes it looks like this new server
can’t cope with large numbers of simultaneous downloads.
At peak hours it may occur the download fails.
No worries though, just try again on a
later point in time and it will work.
Thank you for understanding ..
