Alright, alright. Lets follow the cascade technique here.

I make the beginning with the first part

HINDI ( by Pt. Bheemsen Joshi )

	Mile sur mera tumhaaraa, to sur bane hamaaraa
	Sur ki nadiya har disha se milke (or is it bahake ?) saagar me mile
	Baadalon kaa roop le ke barse halke halke

next Kashmeri (I think) anyone ?

	Hi!

	     My choice of five movies with very good songs are the 
following:

	1) Chori - Chori
	2) Naya Daur
	3) Barsat
	4) Patita (the old one!)
	5) Goonj Uthi Shahnai

	Almost all the songs of each of the above listed movies are good.


	Mani.

   Itna hi fasana hai			(Talat)
4. Seene me sulagte hain armaan		(Talat, Lata)
5. Tere bina aag ye chandni(?), Tu aaja	(Lata)

Well, I dont know which movies these songs featured in. Would be most 
grateful if anyone could shed some light...

Y.S.Prakash wrote sometime back...
"Try AIR (God bless their souls)".

Well, let me tell you something. AIR should be ashamed of such a poor 
collection of old songs. Has anyone heard Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporat
ion (11800 Khz)? They have a fantastic collection of old hindi songs. 
To think that foreigners take something belonging to us and have a better
collection too! I used to listen to their programme "Puraane filmon ke
geet" at 7:30 in the morning. My favourite announcers were Padmini  
Perriera and Dalbir Singh Parmar(sp?).

Those were the days...

Cheers.
Achar.

Suman Kalyanpur or Sharada if you have the period late.
May be Aarti Mukherjee too if it was around that time.
