Yesterday's Melodies, Today's Memories is an attempt to profile the great artistes--singers, lyricists and composers--who were part of the huge tidal wave of Hindi cinema's music from 1931 to about 1970. Greater attention is given to the '50s and '60s, which period is now commonly considered the golden age of our film music.
