I was too young to understand Rafi Sahab songs, then GOD sent SPB to explain Rafi Sahab's work. Coming from southIndia, I will assure you SPB's works in south Indian movies is nothing less than Rafi Sahab if not more. Losing SPB is biggest void for all of us. He was singing so melodious until his last breath.

Exactly. Unfortunately Bollywood never interviewed him properly or no one show promoted him as a mentor (except one or two shows that too during 90s). Otherwise we would have heard many things from him like this. But we southues are lucky becz we have tonnes of memories like this where he explains like this and yet it's not enough for us.

Everybody has his own value, standard & talent but luck is also important, though no of awards is also not guarentee, there is no meter to measure anyonz class or range, in art.... spb is top in many categories, next is kishore...but dont forget Lata ji...& Asha ji in this field.... however the spirit of playback singing is really introduced & developed to its peak by Rafi sb! And he is the legend of music industry without any dout... no comparison possible!

[@themusicman4337]

BS Vijay Anand l sincerely appreciate your patience & research on singers but ALL these singers , mentioned by you personally CONSIDER RAFI Sahib as the genius.. King of song ; when these all singers read your this write up..they will NOT agree with your ratings ; Rafi sahib died at 56 SBP is 73you are counting awards?? SPB worships Rafi sahib because he is a true artist.. Great legend Kishore adored Rafi sahib as a historical phenomenal figure in music world; Lastly SINGING is NOT wrestling.. all these singrrs are GOD sent ; regards to your serious love for music..!!!! counting
