"pen maane "- with wonderful bass lines followed by a haunting humming by SJ and then a lead guitar ,a tiny flute bit , the opening of "pen maane" is the perfect invitation to a breezy Shankarabharanam scale number. The melodic drawl in the charanams , overlapping humming - full credit to SPB/SJ legendary singers who have made these songs unforgettable
DEar ananth, suresh and thumburu.
Thanks for the responses.
Pon maanae - bass guitar

PON MAANE - NAAN SIGAPPU MANITHAN
What a beautiful Shankarabharanam song! Two guitars, both Bass guitars play such a soft prelude tune! Notice that one Bass supports Janaki’s humming neatly…Keyboards and flute to emphasise the shankarabharanam raagam..
In the pallavi, notice a very strong Bass in SPB ‘s background …
The 1st interlude with a lovely violin start, following which we hear an electric guitar with a keyboard with a sound bass guitar in the background…at 01:28, there is a short and sweet tune from the flute..I think the first interlude ends with the electric version of the violin…
A melodious charanam with good violins and Bass…The Bass guitar makes way for the pallavi…
2nd interlude with a loud Bass and keyboard….Fantastic violins in this interlude…For a change, Raaja goes with the classical La La La!!
The highlights are the soothing violins and low pitched, firm Bass ..
I hope all will enjoy this nice post.

from 2.41 to 3.03 min - indha manushan
Big Wind Instrument ku replacement a voice....
Yaralum mudiyadhu.
Indha short notes ai wind instrument alae
blow panna muidyadhu. I feel.
So , on the recording moments, IR might have told to Balu
like this, "Dei Neeaye fill pannidu" - its my imagination...
You can feel the same feel at starting hum itself.
Adhu evvalavu kashtam. Konja nerathukul, HHA sound ai
Punching a delivery panradhu....
Track ilum,. Ivaroda voice overlap aga vera notes oda varum..
Appo dhan strong effect kedachu iruku.
Its a Challenge between Brass Blowers verses Great Balu Raskal.

enjoy ananth. pl post your views of this song....
Hi Usha,
Thanks to you and Ananth for the post.
Brass Blowers !!! Nice phrase. The first interlude is fantastic. Amazing brass blowing :) Second interlude with initially the voices dominating takes your breath away. Outstanding stuff. Those discussing in the other thread about various musical forms tried by Raja should listen to this. How will you classify this song? Jazz? Or shall we call it Razz or Raaz? (Pardon the pun. Razz can be thought of as a combination of Raja and Jazz. Raaz stands for secret in Hindi. It is indeed a very secret sauce that Raja has which enables him to fuse many musical forms so seemlessly). Needless to say, as Usha pointed out, superb singing by SPB.

The 'pa pa pa' which SPB sings in the beginning, can that be termed scat singing? Those who know Jazz can clarify.
S.Suresh
I think it can be classified as R&B or jazz in parts... maybe even bebop.
Just great work from SPB and IR. great experimentation and rendition.
That part from 2:41 is actually a 3 part harmonization - you can hear 3 separate layers of SPB voice in harmony. I think that IR must have composed it meticulously and ensured SPB sang it correctly. It is very tightly arranged in terms of rhythm and harmony - there is no room for improvisation there.Quote:
