Review by Sisipho Goniwe

Parchhaiyan by Rahul Dev Burman is an exceptional album that showcases the versatility of the legendary composer. The album features eight tracks that blend different genres of music, including jazz, rock, and classical, to create a unique and captivating sound.

The album's opening track, "Aaj Ki Junli Raat Ma," is a perfect blend of jazz and rock, with Burman's signature use of the saxophone and guitar. The track is followed by "Dilbar Dil Se Pyare," a romantic ballad that showcases Burman's ability to create soulful melodies.

The album's standout track is "Mera Kuchh Saaman," which is a hauntingly beautiful song that captures the essence of longing and nostalgia. The song features Burman's wife, Asha Bhosle's vocals, which add an extra layer of emotion to the already poignant lyrics.
