payaNangaL mudivathillai (7 SPB gems, we've already posted about them all)
andha rAthirikku sAtchi illai - one of the few where he worked with other MDs, KVM for this film - there was a sweet SPB number (ethir pArthEn iLankiLiya kANalliyE IIRC)
nAn pAdum pAdal (2 SPB gems, 3 more SJ sweeties, one GA/SPS)
vaidhEki kAthirundhAL (no SPB there but some of the best-ever TFM numbers IMO - rAsAththi onna / inRaikku Enindha / azhagu malarAda / kAthirundhu / mEgam karukkaiyilE)
amman kOyil kizhakkAlE (chinnamaNikkuyilu, un pArvaiyil, kAlai nErappoonguyil are so sweet, couple of SPB numbers)
kungumachchimizh (nilavu thoongum nEram is a SPB sweetie, there are a couple more janaranjaga numbers like 'goods vaNdiyilE', 'vachchALAm neththippottu)
rAjAthi rAjA (there were only short songs by SPB I think but others were huge hits)
en jeevan pAduthu (orE muRai un darisanam & katti vachchukkO are evergreen...engirunthO azhaikkum is another...no SPB)
thirumathi pazhanisAmy (pAthakkolusu sweetie by SPB and a couple more nice numbers)
There should be a few more movies with nice songs, but the best had MSV-IR :-)
mellaththiRandhadhu kadhavu!
(no need to list the songs)
There are very few directors in the TF history who can match this man's ability to "get" songs, IMO :-)
