The Golden Era of Dr.IR and Dr.SPB

[Plum]

From an archiving perspective, will try to re-post my old Telugu-IR-SPB posts in the forum regularly.

Plum,

Welcome back. Remember you writing about a Vamshi song like this earlier.

The director of Abhilasha was Kodandarami Reddy. Infact I would say that he, Yendamuri and Raja established Chiranjeevi as the mega star. 'Challenge', 'Abhilasha', 'Kaidhi'(Music not by Raja) are part of Chiru folklore now.

The link to 'Urakalai Godavari':

Aditya Music had released a mp3 CD which has both these movies and some more. These two lie in the beginning. I am unable to get beyond these two movie. And like Plum the other songs caught my fancy as they were played more often on radio. Only after I bought the mp3 CD did I start listening to this song and needless to say has become one of my favorites. The way the tune flows is exactly like a river flowing. Should salute the lyricist who came with the words (probably Veturi)

And Plum I am also not able to decipher the lines you wrote which puzzled you. I have not seen the movie.

Nicely put.
While I keep harping on Telugu lyrics flowing smoothly off tunes, I fail to note with reverence the lyricists who make this possible. If used incorrectly - like in the -anta songs, usually a staple of dubbed movies - Telugu can be jarring, too, on the ears and tunes.

It's most likely Veturi, as Suresh observed. To introduce him to tamil folks, I can probably mark him as the rough equivalent of Vaali. From my knowledge, most of the songs I appreciate for perfect resonance with tunes are by him.

Suresh, let's hope raagas can decipher the lyrics of the song viz-a-viz the movie situation

Wow, nice to see Plum do an excellent, detailed post on a Telungu song!

Now, this thread is really alive, with more contributions!

Please keep them coming - however sporadic they may be.

Actually, that's the best way for thoughts to be poured in. And that's probably the way real writers work.

(To be honest, what app_engine is doing can't be called real "writing"...it's more like "collecting / recollecting & reporting" where there's not much internal struggle / thought process / creativity etc involved. Something like what people in media do, day after day, to make a living )

In the spirit of catching more eye-balls, spamming this thread with a post made in another thread:
(smart strategy, piggy back on app's dedicated fan-base that visits this thread.)

This thread has been come along very well with app and param playing main role. App also trying his best to post the songs in order. You are always welcome to add related telugu song information.. but do not start another branch. It will be better if you can start a new thread for IR-SPB-Telugu combo. This is just a request, as you know it is open forum, you may post as you wish.
