In the beginiing of this osng, the singer seems to be drunk. Later in the song I hear sticks being hit together, probably garba-like sticks. Have a listen

 Listen to Aadmi Aur Insaan (1969)

Words like 'unsung' and 'rare' are usual very loosely on the internet. In a group on Facebook, Sajjad is called unsung! My foot! He is the most overly sung MD, in my opinion. Any photo or song is declared 'rare' or even 'rarest of the rare', even though a quick google search reveals that these have been on the internet for years! Here is one truly rare image of Raj Kapoor from the Bengali film Bari Didi.

 Listen to Jung Aur Aman (1968)

Another interesting song. Here is a guy from the theater auditioning for a role in a talkie in 1934. He names all the plays he has acted in (all famous ones) and sings a song that has the lines,

may bhee ho, mahafil bhee ho, saaGar bhee ho jo paas men,

paas jo dilbar na ho, to ye mazaa kuchh bhee naheen

This is clearly an allusion to the famous rubaaee of Omar Khayyam
