Today on this evening way back in 2011,The Living Legend Bhupen Hazarika passed away ..With his death an era has come to an end ..His songs were requested & played in Bengali Services of Deutsche Welle Radio..Voice of Russia..Voice Of America, Radio Japan NHK World....They aired Bengali Versions of Bhupen Hazarika's songs..I can remember till now...once in April way back in early 2000s in Deutsche Welle Radio-Bengali's then Club Corner Program...the host Abdus Sattar played an Assamese Song..."Mitha Mitha Bohagor..Geet Eti Ke Roso.Buli Bhabilo......a song on sweet sweet Bohag..I'm Thinking of writing..."(poor translation sorry for that)
Its a rare occasion..I recorded the moment online but could trace it now..what a lost for me....
Even wayback in early 1990s when late Nasiur Rehman, noted Radio Personality from Assam.. former News Reader of AIR Delhi Assamese News after retiring from AIR ..went to Moscow to revive the then Assamese Serivce of Radio Moscow (Voice of Russia) ..& I heard ..Songs of Bhupen Hazarika was the regular in the 15 minutes of the transmission in the evening loud & clear.
Several years gone by..........
And then on March 28th of 2009 in the last broadcast via shortwave of Voice of Russia's Bengali Service at the request of a listener A Bengali song of Dr.Bhupen Hazarika was played..The frequency was on 7305kHz & the audio recorded from 1549utc..
