After a long sabbatical, legendary musician, song writer, and composer, Biddu Appaiah best known for smash hit chart busters of the 70’s, has come out with his autobiography ‘Made in India- Adventures of a Lifetime’ published by Harper Collins. Hits like Kung Fu Fighting sung by Carl Douglas, Disco Deewane, Boom Boom, and songs in Feroz Khan’s Qurbaani practically defined the music of the era. Biddu, born 1945 composed a number of hit records during the early part of the British Disco scene of the mid-1970s.
He lifted the careers of British Disco music stars Tina Charles, Carl Douglas, Jimmy James among others; and later found success producing several hits in India. He launched the career of Pakistani singer Nazia Hassan, and Zoheb Hassan and produced Indipop hits for a number of Indian acts, notably Alisha Chinai. From the mid-1970s, Biddu has also been producing his own pop instrumental albums as Biddu Orchestra. (more)
