Indeed. As is any compilation that features the song from the clip above, which you may remember from the opening credits of the very excellent Ghost World. Thanks to crate-digger and ex-Stylus alum Todd Hutlock, I’ve been listening non-stop to Doob Doob O’ Rama Filmsongs of Bollywood for the past 24 hours. Recorded in the 60s and 70s most of the tracks bear a psychedelic bent that meshes nicely with the traditional Indian instrumentation. It’s great stuff. Highly recc’d for fans of George Harrison, Lamb Korma, Bobby Jindal and doob-o-ramas.

Weiss, have you heard the Bombay the Hard Way compilation? Same rad idea, you’d love it:

Song titles like:
“Ganges A Go Go”
“The Good, The Bad, and The Chutney”
and “Punjabis, Pimps, and Players”
and part II has “Sexy Mother Fakir”
So much fun. I’m gonna check out this Doob Doob o Rama nonsense as well. Thanks.

Anyone else catch this poetic line in the song:
“Let me see your ba-ottom Ba-gina ba-honey.”
