Last ATMJH was last in the  series  "Unsung  Musicians".  I  will
touch  upon  on  more  at later point of time. Let's be back with
main stream composers with  this  beautiful  nazm  (or  is  it  a
gazal?).

#276
        Song: Ab Wo Qaram Karen Ke Sitam, Main Nashe Me Hun
                Mujh Ko Na Koi Hosh Na Gum, Main Nashe Me Hun

        Film:   Marine Drive (1955)
        Music:  N Dutta
        Lyrics: Sahir Ludhianwi
        Singer: Mohammad Rafi
        *ing:   Ajit, Bina Rai

While thinking of music composers  using  accordion  beautifully,
one  would easily come up with two names: Shankar Jaikishan and N
Datta. While Shankar Jaikishan's accordion playing has  it's  own
charm,  that of N Dutta's has different tang. This song testifies
the same. Rafi's crisp voice over soothing orchestration makes it
ideal eveninger to be listened and enjoyed.
