Living Music from the Past: G.M. Londhe

The voice of the actor-singer found on this album is that of Gangadharpant Meghashyam Londhe (1902-1944), whose short but active career saw him in multiple roles – an actor-singer in Marathi musical theatre to begin with, a successful recording artiste on gramophone labels of the time, an actor in films, a proprietor of a theatre company and a producer. In fact, the tracks on this album also include songs that Londhe had sung for films and those that were not part of his theatre or film career. The recordings featured here have been restored from the original Odeon Record discs. They have been digitally restored only to a certain extent, so as to retain the nature of the recorded music. The listening pleasure may have been further enhanced with the help of more experimentation with the modern software available to us, but this would have changed the complexion of the music. Music lovers and audiophiles are therefore requested to bear with us.
