Twelve Songs of Christmas - Jim Reeves

Jim Reeves’ ‘Twelve Songs of Christmas’ is surely everyone’s favorite album at Christmas time. From the tiny tots to the oldies, Jim has got music to suit all, be it his peppy Jingle Bells, Senor Santa Claus or the Merry Christmas Polka.

Blue – Joni Mitchell

Because of the obvious reasons, my last two reviews were LPs from two of the finest singer-songwriters, Bob Dylan and the late Leonard Cohen. This time I have picked up an album by another giant from the same genre to complete the trilogy of sorts.

Songs from a Room – Leonard Cohen

Once, I was confined to a room for a few months, recovering from certain self-inflicted wounds. It was then that the Patron-Saint of modern poetry came and healed me with the balm of this album.

1942: A Love Story – Rahul Dev Burman

The 80s had chewed away melody (and poetry) from the Hindi Film Industry and Rahul Dev Burman aka Pancham, had become irrelevant for obvious reasons.

Mahal – Khemchand Prakash

One look at the cover of this 45 RPM Vinyl and you know that there is mystery inside. There is a sketched silhouette of a palace (Mahal) with a clock tower (showing 2 o’clock), over which hovers the beautiful and mysterious face of Madhubala. And the dark hues convey its night-time.

England's Newest Hit Makers The Rolling Stones

They were a bunch of scruffy young British lads doing covers of their R&B and Blues heroes at the local clubs. They were struggling to come up with originals and their hit singles were by others, one of them coming from a certain Lennon-McCartney.
