staying with 1982 - Another obscure album - Kavidhai Malar.

The first song - Alaigale Avarudan - is quite a quirky song.
the pallavi is a sweet melody while the second interlude is a longish violin-cello tempest. more intricate than the much touted nizhalgal - madai thirandhu's orchestral grandeur. much of it is situational (hinted by drums).
However this is a very new type of song and raises the curiosity of what is happening in the movie along with the song. Again - first time hearing - the song evokes mixed emotions. I need to understand more.
The shankara ninnu song is for the funky loony tunes thread.
