2016 repress! This is the second volume in Bombay Connection's 6CD series compiling the best, most rare and most exciting songs from the colorful history of Bollywood music. Bombshell Baby of Bombay: Bouncin' Nightclub Grooves from Bollywood Films 1959-1972, Vol. 2 features the exciting, sexy sound of the Bollywood nightclubs of the late '50s, '60s and early '70s. The nightclub scene was a welcome excuse to show some sexy dancing and inject some exciting jazz and rock'n'roll sounds into the otherwise very prudish Bollywood films. Whiskey, cigarette smoke and stockings... accompanied by wild jazzy dance sounds, Indian style! The Indian orchestras effortlessly blended the classic Indian film sound with popular Western dance music into an extremely energetic, bouncy and infectious Bollywood mix. This volume features both classic nightclub tunes like "Jan Pahechan Ho," the famous surf rocker from Gumnaam and "1,2,3 Baby" from Kismat as well as extremely rare songs like the Beatlesesque "Pretty Pretty Priya" as well as the scorching title music to Bluff Master and the bongo killer madness of the track from Kala Bazar. Lavishly packaged and lovingly compiled from the best available masters of this rare material.
