Details : Mohammad Rafi i.e. Rafi sahab, Awaaz Ke Baadshaahaa - The only singer I know who could effortlessly blend his voice in 3 octaves, fully understood and expressed emotions behind lyrics like he meant them, 100 percent, and sang each line with such a utter sincerity and open voice that anyone listening in will simply melt down. Immensely in sync and in harmony with every song he sang! Yet to see an artist, so talented but remained so humble.... when you see/hear his electrifying performances, putting your hands together and head down is all there is to do! Truly god himself in action!!
Let's get together and pay our respects to Rafi sahab on his anniversary! Use this opportunity to cherish and celebrate his musical legacy!
