Maestro Ilaiyaraja New Albums 2011 - Hello Jaihind / Sri Rama Rajyam

[V_S]

Wonderful review Suresh ji! I am also slowly forgetting the synth quotient and surrendering to these top class melodies. Every morning I wake up and every night again ends up with these fascinating melodies. It takes a Maestro to come up with these sweet, fresh, free-flowing, yet powerful, in-depth and soulful compositions.

After reading all the wonderful, insightful reviews of most of you guys around, I could not resist my temptation to listen to PS. As my illuck would have it, i CUDN'T ACCESS THE GODDAMN RAAGA SITE AND MUSIC INDIA OR PAADAL ALSO DON'T HAVE IT. iNSTEAD i thought its better late than never and heard much to my dismay, Raja's recent ASK . Not even 1 song impressed me compltely. Kuthikira kuyhikira begs for a versatile,effortless singer of SPB's caliber and why is Raja singing it? His voice is terrible . If only SPB had sung, it would have become another "vethalai vethalai yo" . The taut tempo and cool synth interlude music combined with SPB's voice could have made for an interesting listen. Did any of u feel the opening fluttering like a butterfly music resembling the "kothumbi" thiruvasagam number?

adiyE IVALE - i DONT KNOW WHETHER rAJA HAD PUT ANY EFFORT FOR THIS PROSE LIKE FOLK SONG. eVEN PUSHPAVANAM CUD HAVE COME UP WITH SOMETHIng better.

poovakeLu - Rehash of odathannil of pazhassiraja and "hey konji pesi" of "kaadhal kavidhai" -Here and there some glimpses of old brilliance in the inter charanam music and interludes. Thats all. Iam waiting with impatience for ponnar shankar

thumburu,

Would love to have your uncompromising views on Ponnar Shankar. Hope you get to listen to it soon.

On ASK, I will beg to differ about the kuthirai song. It would have lost its nativity if SPB had sung it. The imperfection of Raja's voice adds a lot to the song and my guess is it will suit the character in the film better. We can decide on this only when the film is released

Uncompromising? Ha ha haa, i am sure you were pulling legs here...Perhaps "biased and/or highly subjective" views is a better adjective. The careless sarcasm tells it all, as it was intended and pretty unnecessary here...To say Kuthirai song deserved SPB better to IR--who has done an outstanding job here--is just as horrible as attributing 'vethala vethala' to SPB, when the credit is due for Malaysia vasu....all proof of an impatient, hurried and shallow review ... [reminds me of ....well forget it )]

As much as someone relishes writing such scathing remarks, indirectly it only shows how they are all TOTALLY dependent and highly expectant on IR to deliver on and on and on like a perpetual music machine....They have nowhere else to go, other than IR, to flaunt their knowledge....just wondering if the thiruvizha song had some raga pattern or some WCM pattern, it would suit such "uncompromising" reviewers more than how it does now....

adhu enna "even" pushpavanam"? Pushpavanam who knows over 3000 folk numbers is no less an achiever than those "i-know-30-keerthanais" carnatic sabha fellows....In order to put down IR, you also drag someone else and say "even" pushpavanam??

And since when did Raja's voice become 'imperfect' ?? Raja wanted to sound like a raw voice here and we all know it was intended...

Ponnar Shankar Good Quality ACD Rips are available all over the net which means the CD's have hit the market already. Hopefully I'll buy the ACD by today itself
