  Suresh,
  
  I heard "Nanda Vanak kuyile" from Ponnu Veettukkaran in your site. It is really a very neat song man! After hearing this song (both IR & HH versions) I am seriously thinking of buying the CD. Typical IR melody, IR interludes! Wow!! I have really missed to hear this number for a long time.

  Murali,
  
  You are right, Ponnu Veetu Kaaran is a very good album, some how left unnoticed. There are other very good numbers in addition to Nandavanda Kuile like Illaiya Nilave and Ponnu Veetu Karangalle , the later song has very good interludes, worth a buy.
  
  Cheers
  
  G.Suresh

  Suresh,
  In both yours as well as Rex's site Iam having problems playing selected songs. For example I can play 'athikaalai nilave' but cannot play 'maargazhi maasam' in your arre songs section.
  is there something wrong with the members.tripod.com server? MS has also been having the same problems.
  
  In rex's site I cannot play the latest songs(from 300 onwards).

  Vijay,
  
  It is strange man, even now Margazhi Maasam is song is playing fine and also I tried playing Thaamarai Kodi from Rex's site and is playing fine.
  
  Adhikaalai nilave and Margazhi Maasam are in different servers. What we could try is, let me know when you are available in yahoo chat, we can try parallely and see. Give me a mail to kavsur@hotmail.com on your availability.
  
  Cheers
  
  G.Suresh

  yvs mani & MS:
  
  Kindly check your firewall settings!! There are very few numbers that might have some missing links because of Geocities Server. Therefore kindly let me know if you guys are accessing the net from home or from Work. If from work, are you behind a firewall. If you are behind a firewall, then you should be having problems!!

  I can play many of your songs - eg - manathil enna ninaivugaLo, devanin kOvil etc..But there are many songs which I am not able to play. Please clarify.

  bb,
  
  Thanks for including my URL. But it is not working. You included "ilayaraaja" instead of "ilaiyaraaja". Please change it to http://listen.to/ilaiyaraaja. Thanks in Advance.
  
  Rex :
  
  Did you read my previous posting ?
  I am able to play all songs in your page. For some songs I am getting server time out error message. May be they are in Geocites server. Nowadays geocities really sucks.

  MS,
  You are most welcome man. thEvathai BGM I recorded from Video cassette. I think it is a VCD copy. I am now based in Bahrain. So I don't know about availability of VCD. Here we get all films VCD within 1 week of film release.

  Rex:
  I am accessing from office, using Realplayer 4.0 version.
  The same problem happened at Extremely rare songs site also.
  But I was able to listen to extremely rare songs from my head office.(NIC)
  Anyway, I will try once again and inform u by today or on Monday evening. ( Indian time)
  Thanks.

  yvs mani:
  
  Your problem is due to REALPLAYER 4.0. Many of my earlier songs and even now most of the BGMs were encoded using the old RealAudio Encoder which produced .ra files. Those are the only files that you can play with REALPLAYER 4.0. For all other files that I have tagged as HIGH QUALITY etc, they are encoded using G2 and therefore you definitely need REALPLAYER G2 Or the latest REALPLAYER 7.0 version.
  
  Almost all my latest songs are G2 (in fact a majority of my songs are in G2). Therefore, now I am able to get a feel of what your problem is. Just to to www.real.com and download the latest G2 or RealPlayer 7.0
  
  MS:
  
  Most of the latest songs are put in MSN Server. There might be some problems for this server to buffer the songs if you are behind the firewall! Please give me at least a list of 10 such songs so that I can do some thorough testing.
  
  Thanks a lot guys for taking up this issue.

  Thanks a lot

  bb,
  
  Could you please move Rex's site to the top in the list of links provided at the top of this page. It will be appropriate to have Rex's site in the top for the reasons, he is the one who started this page which is very active right from day one till today, he is the forerunner and strong inspiration for many of us to come up with individual sites for Maestro Ilaiyaraja. Hope Jee you won't get me wrong.
  
  Cheers
  
  G.Suresh

  Rex, Thanks a lot for the high quality Stereo "Thamarai Kodi..". Awaiting your next uploads, whichever it is, we know it's going to be good. Thanks again for the great work.
  
  Suresh, Thanks very much for the ANNAKKILI BGM, No wonder why no one can be better than IR when it comes to BGM. He has shown it in his very first movie itself.
  
  Also, I go with your view about moving Rex's Site link to top, the only page with an active activity from day one, started by Rex.

  Suresh, Chandil:
  
  Thanks a lot for your compliments! I have a terrific surprise for you in store, Chandil!! My recent problems are servers! I am fighting hard amidst my travel and hectic schedules to do the maintenance with no or very few missing links. I am sure, this weekend, I am going to practically 'hunt' for some missing links and will accord top priority to restore them. Of course, uploads would continue too.
  
  Missing links can be kindly reported to ilayaraaja@hotmail.com or isaignani@hotmail.com . That will be greatly appreciated.
  
  MS & yvsmani:
  
  Please continue to pour in your complaints....Vijay included....I will definitely try my best to solve those issues.
  
  Also when I have some time, I will get started with CGI Scripting to provide the SELECT and PLAY option. I wish I had more time to do all these things with constant uploads!! Please bear with me for some delays regarding uploads/restoration of links/request songs uploads/page enhancements, etc...
  
  Thanks and Happy Weekend!!
