The Rough Guide to

MUSICROUGHGUIDES

Psychedelic Bollywood

In the 1960s and 1970s Bollywood composers adventurously adopted the trippy guitars, spiralling synthesizers and ethereal vocals of psychedelia and mixed it with lusciously over-the-top Indian orchestrations. Jewels included feature songs by Asha Bhosle, Lata Mangeshkar, Usha Iyer and yodeller Kishore Kumar.

Artists Include: Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Kalyanji Anandji, Shiv Hari, R.D. Burman, Usha Iyer, Laxmikant-Pyarelal, Mohammed Rafi and Kalyanji Anandji.

Bonus CD: The Rough Guide To R.D. Burman This hand-picked bonus album spotlights the work of seminal composer R.D. Burman. He scored for over 300 movies over the years 1960 to 1990 and was the son of illustrious composer S.D. Burman, whose compositions are also heard on here.
