Flavours of Bollywood vol.1

Presented for your listening pleasure now, a mix of Indian soundtrack music featuring all your fave composers (Kalyanji-Ananji, R.D. Burman, Bappi Lahiri, Shankar Jaikishan, etc.), playback singers (Asha Bhosle, Lata Mangeshkar, Mohammed Rafi, Kishore Kumar, etc.), and movies (Yaadon Ki Baaraat, Satyam Shivam Sundarum, Professor Pyarelal, Jewel Thief, etc.). Sound quality is not so good, all apologies, due to the many less-than-pristine vinyl LPs used, and the fact that some transfers are from cassettes from the discount bin at the local Indian grocery. EQ is overrated, anyway.

This Classy Joint

Ok, so I know tepid jazz funk is not a very fashionable sound right now, but I've had a soft spot for it for a long time. All instrumental, all more or less groovy groovers. Jam it at your next dinner party.
