Noor Jehan - I Am Very Sorry

To coincide with the forthcoming release of ‘The Sound Of
Wonder’, Finders Keepers present a limited edition 7” from
Lollywood legend Noor Jehan, also featuring a track not
available on the compilation.
• Lollywood's Lahore based film industry was a profitable and
vibrant one that found great success in the modest boundaries of
its own country but was seldom savoured outside Pakistan.
However, the hugely important musical business spawned a bi-
product that was viewed as a potential earner for international
entertainment industry, EMI, which allowed talented musicians to
create ambitious music with world class mediums at there
disposal, which throughout the 60s and 70s ranged from fuzz-
guitars, space-echo machines and American and European
synthesizers, but, due to the composers indigenous roots,
rarely a drum-kit.
• Here you'll find fuzzy, scuzzy, twang-happy, spaced-out and
funked up Urdu-grooves complete with harmonium melodies
and driven by some of the most random factor, freakish,
finger-numbing, percussion  that the South East Asian
mainstream has ever had to offer. Above all, Lollywood
soundtracks sound raw.
