UPLOADS UPDATE - October 3, 1999
I am really grateful to all the fans who have expressed their joy over the recent uploads of KANNUKORU VANNAKILI . Of course to those fans who might be skeptical about whether I am going to give some attention to some of the RARE, OLD, GOLDIES of Raaja (bcoz nowadays it seems like I have diverted my entire attention towards BGMs and other new rare hits....), I am going to upload one great old goldie of Raaja to my site this week. That song is:
Raaman Aandaalum Raavanan Aandaalum from the movie MULLUM MALARUM . This song is a great great song with a wonderful folk tune and chorus.....I really have spent a lot of time in noise removal for this song and this song is still in the noise removal process. Should be up at my site by Sunday afternoon. The file mode will be G2 20.7 Kbps. If other OS users need the old .RA file (16 Kbps mode), I will be glad to encode it in that mode too.
After this song, I will be starting my Voice of Ilaiyaraaja Week . Each day, a rare voice of Raaja will be uploaded to my site. Check that out.
Thanks,
Rex Arul

Rex:
Wonderful to note the hits from all over the world, apt commendations of your efforts. Keep it up !
As I emailed you, you should get my (mailed) cassette containing a few rare 80,s songs that many IR fans have been asking for, next week.
I listened to the Song 315 (unnai naan Parkayil..). What a wonderful baroque (Bach) style start, which was brought back the first interlude ! Only IR can do it !
Folks: if you listen to Bach's Brandenberg concertos collection (available as separate CD), you can enjoy IR's piece in this song even more ! The Brandenberg concertos were discovered and popularized after Bach's death. These were heavily loaded with baroque style (use of violins and chellos in combinations of four, what they call string quartet, chamber style) music. And Bach is usually credited with this style. You do not need any experience in listening to western to listen to this Bach's collection. It is simple and enjoyable. If you like IR, sure you will enjoy this collection. You will also find that IR has creatively used such styles in many interludes in his songs numerous. Listen and discover them in IR's songs, I am sure it would be a wonderful experience.

Prof. Ravi:
Thanks a lot for your comments. Your comments are too good. In fact such comments like these as well as from others, will help this forum grow and would really pump the enthu in all webmasters. For a long time, this thread was not receiving comments from very many fans. Now I could see a revived enthu from different fans.....and I wish all of you could write something like how you felt about a particular song(s), similitudes, technicalities, even comparisons like this song of IR to a Bach composition as you have mentioned etc......Once again thanks a lot Dr.Ravi, I really appreciate that.
