//Dig: regarding your sig, IIRC, Zubin Mehta has (had) not heard of Raaja and Rahman until he was asked about them in an interview in India, a couple of years back. I vaguely remember reading something about it (in our forum too)
That naan kadavul track, Pichai Paathiram is a Mahaanathi or Music. Eppadi Mahaanathi padam, esp the final scenes paakka manasu kanathudum, athukku bayanthe sila samayam, antha padam TV la vanthaa kuuda, antha scenes avoid pannuvom, athumaathiri intha song. Oru song ai rasikka vekkurathu mattumilla, ipadi oru apprehension, fearful emotion vara vekkurathu kooda oru saathai thaan
True. Actually Kannil Paarvai and Amma Un also :lol:

How come every raja's site even our old tfmpage carry that statement. Some even say that comment was given by him in late 80s.
Well said sakala, it would cause shiver within ourselves.
A song that drove my monday morning blues out of the window. Wherever this song touches us, we become so pure. Wherever we touch this song, it becomes pure gold. Right from starting violins till manjari finishes with 'kaathil vannu chollumO kanavil kanda kaaryam', it puts us in a state where we are totally shut down from all external factors. We and the song make us this world. Normally they would say any slow soothing song will make us also feel slow and peaceful, but here it is the other way round. As the song progresses with brisk pace, our heart beat slows down. The tune in every line is honey-soaked. The way charanam (same with pallavi-anupallavi too) is structured and built upto the final line is so lovely and rich. This is what I am talking about! Compare the sweetness and unpredictability in this tune with any of recent compositions from any composer, they will surely bite the dust. These two lines; "Paralukal pulayana puzhayude neettil neeradum nEram, Kunukune pozhiyana mazhayude paatil koothaadum nEram" tells why Maestro is not reachable by anyone. It takes a genius to compose a tune like this. That's not all, after these two racy lines how he applies the brake gradually in the final line; 'Kaate vannu konjumO kanavil kanda kaaryam' to catch the pallavi only makes him shine like a sun.
In orchestration, there are suprises everywhere. Especially in the second interlude where he plays veena with backing bass is a stunning piece of work by Maestro. The bass in the whole song gives the added kick in this already honey-sweet melody. What a rhythm, what a pace, what a melody and what an innovation! One of the best song by Vijay Yesudas. I am already a fan of Manjari's voice and singing, but I think this is her debut song and what a performance!. The last song I heard her from Maestro was Ambum Kombum from Pazhassi Raja. Maestro should use her more. One of the sweetest composition of all times!

Lovely writeup V_S.
"Kaate vannu konjumO kanavil kanda kaaryam" - What a brilliant way to join the pallavi !! As you said, no one other than Raja can conceive such a song. This movie also had that lovely' nadhaswaram kaetto managala melam', a favorite of mine. Bhavatharini may not be the best person to sing that song but the tune and orchestration are top notch. I heard from a friend that the producer's only condition to the director was that the music must be by Raaja. And Raja gave some lovely songs which unfortunately were not heard often because the film didn't do well. 'vaazhimaru vazhimaru', 'pandathe naatupram', 'ammayenu vaaku', 'maan kutti', 'nadaswaram kaetto' and this song. I love this album.
Thanks Suresh ji. pandathe naatupuram only makes me smile when Maestro sings malayalam in thamizh flavor and lyrics also fully supporting to be more of thamizh touches than malayalam. :wink: Ammayenu Vaaku is a classic! Surprisingly the female version was sung by a new comer Renjini Jose. Since the song goes to higher pitches, even when she managed very well in pitching, the 'bhaavam' suffers there. Missed Chitra or Shreya there. Hearing Yesudas version makes us feel how easy it is when a legend sings. Naadaswaram kEttO is another brilliant number as you said, except the singer choice. Yes it is a lovely album.

oru chiri kaNdAl - nice song (first time)...however, except the second interlude, the song is very atypical for MFM...and the video almost reaches Chiranjeevi-Suhasini Telugu song category :-)

Superb Album, Madhu, came in 2006 but went unnoticed :(
http://thiraipaadal.com/tpplayer.asp...827%27&lang=en
I hope almost everyone wud have heared "KetkavillaiyO" Heavenly feel!
Another great find, S.Janaki number. http://www.thiraipaadal.com/tpplayer...371%27&lang=en
Thiraipaadal is a Puthaiyal! :D
Thanks sakala for Madhu. Lovely songs really and first time listen for me. Ketkavillaya is truly heavenly, IR's rendition is laidback adds to the beauty. Nilavai Chutri by Tippu is very good too, like his rendition in this one, similar to Kasthoori Pottu from Konji Pesalam.
Nilavu Suduvathillai has the amazing Naalum Un Manam. It became more popular after it got used in Abhinandhana (Prema Ledani) I guess.
Some more sample songs recorded from lps with lots of scratches. After a thorough clean and rise, its much better.
http://soundcloud.com/raja4ever/guru-endhankannilsample and http://soundcloud.com/raja4ever/kizh...yil-malargalae
The over all quality is amazing when compared to the year they were released. Wish I could get hold of new ones... (sigh)
vinodkumar,
endhan kannil prelude sizzles!
malargaley nadhaswarangal....
charanangal are AWESOME!
Raja defines ROMANCE!
He hypes the emotions with Janu's humming, Vasu's singing!
Nothing awestruck me anymore after growing up with Raja's music!:musicsmile::bluejump:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wS-UY1wa4wk
Baroque, Your specialty is to unearth rare, unheard songs! :) This one, though anytime cherishable, you have posted 1 or 2 times already!
Here is one of the best recorded LP with good stereo imaging. I was able to ge a decent one with very minimal scratches and it sounds awesome in my system. Raaja has experimented a lot with certain instruments being played on separate channels and sometimes they move from left to right and vice-versa.. You can notice this a lot in some albums in the 80's (especially in this one) http://soundcloud.com/raja4ever/thanikatturaaja-raasave
Enjoy
:shock:
'malarkaLE nAdhaswarangaL' is from the album for BR's kizhakkE pOgum rayil (not picturized IIRC, thankfully, one can't imagine Sudhakar / Radhika for this lovely number) and the song was a stupendous hit those days!
People from the TV gen couldn't see it because of no-video. That doesn't mean this is "unheard" or "rare".
Songs like this brought MV the status he enjoyed in his career!
adi poonguyilE poonguyilE from araNmaNaikkiLi on repeat...
I have nothing nice to say about the singers :oops: (Mediocre M & MM)
The folk melody, OTOH, in so endearing and enjoyable inspite of the paridhAba singing. Lovely!
I've noted another interesting thing with this song - the terrific second interlude :WOW:
It didn't take me even a second to identify how this had been borrowed by the 'thEnmAvin kombaththu' MDs (who've already plagiarized 'Asai adhikam vachchu' song of maRupadiyum). The most fav song from that album is 'karuththa peNNE' and it has portion of this second interlude used ditto :oops:
karuththa peNNE
One reason for me to like that song was the "IR feel" it has...now I know there's more than just influence :wink:
Sakala, one or two times only I have posted! I am surprised!
this is yet another malargalile composition.....vasu, janu with ilayaraja!
you melt in viragadhabam!
http://www.raaga.com/player4/?id=264...23446040271211
app - and that MD ousepacchan has the gall to spread canards oN IR (he was the one who fanned the ONV Kurup issue during Pazhassi, wasnt he?) and trying to use his "Malayaliness" to throw mud on IR, right?
Ingrate feller!
Thanks to PR, I'm looping on Naatupura Paatu. Never cared to listen to this album fully before. And boy, what joy have I've missed all these years!
This is organic/folk/earthy music at its very best! :musicsmile:
KV,
If you haven't heard it, I would also recommend you to hear 'Periya Marudhu'. Amazing songs all of them. Very rustic and very satisfactory.
While me too share the same irritation w.r.t pazhassi rAjA incident, the thEnmAvin kombaththu crime was not by him.
It was a rettaiyar called Berny-Ignatius
As I was listening to therkE veesum (from the 90s songs thread), my mind, for some strange reason popped up this song - kavidhai paadu kuyilE kuyilE (Thendrale ennai thodu).
It's probably the contrast in the styles of the songs, I imagine. While the former is all subtle, beneath-the-cloak experimentation, the latter's a total freakout with look-at-me percussion (which IMO is quite rare for Raaja), some crazy bass lines and wind sections, and lastly an exuberant SPB!

Been humming Saindhu Saindhu for the last few days and unintentionally divert to humming Chahe Pandit Ho/Ramaranalum when reaching the “...nee parkum pothu. Adaa ddaa, hey hey!” part :lol:
I guess it was worth going back down memory lane. IRs music doesn’t sound nothing like his previous or present material. It definitely was a landmark song and having KH and SRK in the video/film was more than having icing on the cake. ¾ of the song is Jazz and in the climax the sound turns to Qawwali for the better. Lyrics display a meaningful message in a “Happy go lucky” wrapper.
Listen to the title music of moonRAm piRai, from 0:07:45 onwards ; when the drums roar in, what a feel!
