Yaadon Ki Manzil was a series of albums having selected songs from Hindi movies.
These are generally not the songs that made or stayed at number one on the charts in their times, but most of these have something very peculiar about them. One thing is for sure - each one of these is super melodious!
These are the songs I grew up with.
I'm putting together in these playlists whichever songs from the series I've been able to lay my hands on. Hope you like these!

Very few pleasures in this world compare to the joy of rediscovering a song that you were fond of in your teenage days, after a gap of 20-25 years! This happened to me today. During the transition from cassettes to CDs and then to mp3's, I lost this song and completely forgot about it, though I liked it very much in the 90's. Today in 2020, I found it again! Thank you N. Dutta and Majrooh Sultanpuri / Kaifi Azmi for this enchanting composition.
As a bonus, I'm including the happy version!
Dil Ki Tamanna Thi Masti Mein (happy) - (Gyara Hazar Ladkiyan) 1962 Mohd. Rafi, Asha Bhosle - Tum Jo Aao To Pyaar Aa (Sakhi Robin) 1962 Suman Kalyanpur & Manna Dey
- Meri Tasveer Lekar Kya Karoge Tum (Kala Samunder) 1962 Mohd. Rafi, Asha Bhosle, Balbir & Chorus
- Khanke Kangna Bindiya Hanse (Dr. Vidya) 1962 Lata Mangeshkar
Now, this one has a very naughty and natural 'Aah' from Lata Mangeshkar at the end of the first stanza. You don't get to hear this from Lata often. But when you do, it's difficult not to keep taking the slider back again and again a thousand times! - Badli Badli Duniya Hai Meri (Sangeet Samrat Tansen) 1962 Lata Mangeshkar & Mahendra Kapoor
- Tum Hi Tum Ho Mere Jeewan Mein (Ek Dil Sau Afsane) 1963 Lata Mangeshkar & Mohd.Rafi
- Vo Jo Milte The Kabhi (Akeli Mat Jaiyo) 1963 Lata Mangeshkar
