Raja's Gems - the latest one you heard...Part 3

[app_engine]

Again I have found the same with "Ek Do theen " and "Maru Go Maru Go" song

According to Gangai Amaran, Ek dO theen was a rehash of 'aNNE aNNE sippAyaNNE' of kozhi koovuthu

Jai was asking about MohanBabu - Raja combination earlier. Here is a nice Saibaba song from his film 'Kuntriputrudu'. Sung very well by SPB. Based on Madhyamavathi / Brindavana Saranga. (Via a friend in facebook)

1. holi holi holi is from Raasukutty
2. Om Sivoham has some annoyingly feeble synth(?) percussion or thAmbALam beats
3. Innisai Mazhai probably didnt have Mamta Kulkarni. Wasnt that NanbargaL by Shoba Chandrasekar?- music by one of the Manoj-Gyan duo I think

suresh(not sikkan 65 suresh), are you a old timer? The one who wrote about Fazil's Poove Poochadavaa and its original and the resonance to your personal life of that movie?

Simply wonderful!!
The caption said the movie was 2003. looked more 93 to me - all the instrumentation, sound, everything was 1993 time period ... Very good song.. I will add this to my "everyday listen" collection.
On the same note I would like to remind everyone of the other Saibaaba song sung by Yesappu..

from the movie shirdi sai mahathyam..
Staying with Brindavana saranga.. Here is one from "Pudhiya Ragam" a Jayachitra terror movie..

Thanks Sureshji!!! what a wonderful day that begins with these songs..

Jai,

Was sure you would like that song. As you rightly put it, Raja has given the 90s feel to the song.

All the songs of 'Shirdi Sai Mahathyam' are terrific, though I heard only a couple of them when it was released. Had to make up later!!!

And when it comes to ragas like Madhyamavathi / Brindavana Saranga or Suddha Saveri, Raja never goes wrong and all the while gives us newer insights into these ragas. Mano sings the song quite well, I say.

And while staying on the devotional songs, here is a superb one from 'Yedukondala Swamy':

Veering away from Devotional, I came across this album. "Kaadhal Oivathillai" *ing Karthik and Ramya krishnan.

I am taken in by the song "Kadal Mele Alai " song (2nd song). The swagger put on by SPB has to be heard to be believed.
When I listen to the 3rd song I see so much of "T.Rajendar" and "evendran" of those times (80s). The second interlude violin quells my doubt (along with SPB and SJ saying lalalala in the charanam). One more interesting album from Raaja that I havent heard..

Lovers of classical carnatic and hindustani (Is it Hamsadwani?) would find the 3rd song "Raaja Mohini" enticing and spell binding.. It has a distinct "Telugu" feel to it. I am not able to pin reasons why...

Every one over here seems to be full of praises for SPB, but none of you even take part in SPB threads, even the SPB + IR Thread
