INDIAN HIPPIE OST: HARE RAMA – R.D. BURMAN, Beat instro, moog, hammond.
Click here to listen to a SOUND CLIPThis is the original soundtrack for "Hare Rama hare Krishna" from 1971 by the great film composer R.D. Burman. The film deals with the abuse of Indian girls by crazy drug induced hippies in India. It’s India’s answer to the western exploitation of India’s so called spiritualism. The film is full of caricatures of hippies who are smoking their heads off and who are corrupting the country. The film created a huge fuzz in India around the Hare Krishna movement which was indeed involved in drugs smuggle. It even caused the movement to partly collapse!
The music is Amazing. To begin with, there’s are two versions of the discoteque hit "Dum maro dum" ("Take another hale"!!), with a vicious sixties beat and psychedelic moog and sitar work. The refrain and synth imitate the effect that a hit of a splif has. The chorus imitating hippies singing "Hare Krishna hare Rama" is lurid! This was a major hit throughout the world in 1971, because it hits exactly the right chord for psychedelic pleasure and dancing.
Absolute Highlight is the another instrumental version of this song. Weird moog effects Heavy Horror horns, breaking glass, and absolutely dancable!
Remakable: on the LP is the great duet between USHA IYER and ASHA BOSHLE: "I love You" with infectious rhythms & James Bond Intro and franticly speeding up towards the end ("Can we go a little bit faster, man!") and another heavy percussion instrumental which sounds like good exotica!
