78 rpm Records of Indian Music: Kutchi Songs by Cassum Ranji
Many songs in Indian regional languages were recorded and released on 78 during the first half of the 20th century. Here’s a disc on the Zonophone label of a singer named Cassum Ranji, performing two songs in the Kutchi language. This means that even if I could figure out a single word from the recording, I wouldn’t have a clue. Appropriately enough, the labels, especially that of the B side, are almost unreadable.

dear sir,
I am Navin Patel from, Vadodara, Gujarat, India. I am editor of magazine Kutch Arpan, published as abimonthly magazine. We have a group of Kutchi language specialist. If you can send me a audio file of this Indian Music : Kutchi Songs, then we may be able to track it and find exact lyrics of the song. It must be one of singer from princely state of Kutch in the past. We have interest in it as historical curiosity and may be good article for my magazine, of course with credit to you.
Please send in details or communicate on kucharpan@rediffmail.com
