Nusrat Hussain
Encyclopedia
Nusrat Hussain began playing keyboards with bands that his friends formed in Islamabad. He began his professional career in the music industry with Vital Signs. He also appeared in the "Dil Dil Pakistan
" video, which was immensely popular in Pakistan in the late 1980s.
When Salman Ahmed, a member of the band (but who was not in the band when the Dil Dil Pakistan video was released) went his separate way, Nusrat joined him to form a Band with Ali Azmat
as lead vocalist, a band called Junoon. If Vital Signs were the pioneers of pop music in Pakistan
, Junoon were the pioneer of sufi rock, an eclectic mix of rock'n'roll and traditional ethnic music with religious undertones.
After spending some time with Vital Signs, and Junoon, Hussain ventured on his own and released a solo album titled (Amrit). It was a sincere effort that reflected Nusrat's skills and experience in the music industry. Unfortunately, the album did not do quite as well as expected. It could have been that he was a relatively unknown in the pop music scene.
Nusrat Hussain is a professional pilot and flies the Airbus A310
of Pakistan International Airlines
as a Captain (PIA).
