It contains 3 perfect tracks in an exceptional sound quality for this kind of records: - First you have a dramatic hip-hop instrumental that must come from another planet - Then your needle gently slides to a weird song upon a kinky beat by Usha Uthup (aka Usha Iyer) "one two cha cha cha" that surely won't leave the dancefloor empty - Finally you won't be insensitive to the funky sexy "baby let's dance together" In one word, this album is fantastic...

Blaxploitation.com, an interesting tribute to the genre, includes a list of "the best in beats-driven soundtrack music over the past thirty years. It encompasses music from all over the world, focusing primarily on funk and 'blaxploitation' scores while including earlier groovy, jazz-influenced or 'beat' soundtracks. Ratings are based on a subjective appraisal of a soundtrack's groove element: that indefinable something that makes you want to dance, nod your head, or listen more closely to the music. The ratings are purely the opinion of blaxploitation.com's soundtracks contributors." R. D. Burman has three entries in the list: SHALIMAR, HARE RAMA HARE KRISHNA, and YAADON KI BAARAAT. In case you want to sample more Bollywood hits that have achieved a following as funk classics, check out BOLLYWOOD FUNK, a July 31, 2000 release. Incidentally, the date marks the 19th death anniversary of famous Indian playback singer Mohammed Rafi. Read the entries for this album on Amazon and All Music Guide.
