Just when I thought I was going to call it a day for acquisitions , He plays - on my music system-a mind blowing MDR-Kalki Unte-in the Company of Lalgudi -Coimbatore Ramaswamy and *??** Iyengar on te Khanjira -
Mind blowing recording as well as rendering.
And he takes great satisfaction in the fact that this will be spread further.
Kji
the Khanjira player was sree Madurai Krishna Iyengar

and that mind blowing kriti rendered by sree mdr-kaligi uNTE gadA - kIravANi - tyAgarAja

Dear Mr.Coolkarni,
I joined this forum recently and when I tried to access the DP rapidshare tracks, I got the message, "file not found".
May I request you or some other member who has already d/l these to upload the same so that I can enjoy this artiste who, unfortunately, has not come to the limelight in the CM world.There are many such unsung and unheralded voices in CM who have never received the adulation of the more prominent musicians, and it will be a welcome and refreshing experience for many of us to get an opportunity to hear them through this forum.One such artiste,who comes to my mind is G.S.Mani
Another one is Manakkal Rangarajan.If you have any files of these two musicians, I would appreciate your uploading them.
Thanks,
Sivaraman.

i will wait for a day or so to see if badri or others meet your request.
We did go through a similar exercise for gs mani last year and we could repeat it.(if someone has the tracks).
Otherwise I will dig into my stock (which has received good inflows since that period !)again and upload.
Manakkal. This weekend I should be meeting his son Sriram with the hope of getting something !!!(though one concert had been uploaded earlier-the only one with me)

Thank you very much for the Gokula Nilaya!

My earliest memories in life are living just a few yards away from the music classroom at the Theosophical High School within the Theosophical society campus in Adyar -- where the KFI school now is.

(coolkarni, there used to be an old fort or palace like big structure inside, and behind that were some living quarters where the long time HM Krishnarathnam and three other teachers lived, as well as a music class room -- do not know if the structures still exist).

And two of my favorites were Gokula Nilaya and also a song which started "rAdha kAntha shyamalALanga dwaraka vAsA mAdhavA ..."

As a 2 or 3 year old, I used to stand across from the class, and ask the teacher to sing again and again those two -- and the teacher and the students usually complied with my request!

Thanks again for bringing back memories from long, long ago --
now, if only someone else has a copy of "rAdha kAnthA ..."

Whose composition is rAdhAkAnta shyAmaLAnga?
Lakshman,

Don't know -- all I remember is what I listened to when I was between 2 and 5 years old -- quite a while ago. Have done google searches, no luck.

The raga is BhimpLas (guess that explains why I liked both rAdhA kanthA and gOkula nilaya) -- and given that it was taught at the Theosophical High School, I imagine there must be a Varadachar or Vasudevachar or some other Kalakshetra connection (of course, I may be wrong).

The lyrics, from memory are as follows:

rAdhA kanthA shyamaLAngA
dwaraka vAsA madhAvA

kamsa dwamki veNuka bandhana (? - sorry, my sanskrit is not good)
kaLiNga nardhana keshava

Sanka chakra dhara peethambaradhara
garuda vAhana murahari
gokula VAsA nathajana sheela
gOpI ramaNa keshava

Didn't realize there was a thread on vidwan D. Pasupathi! I heard a recording of his years ago, and was hooked straightaway. Have been looking for more of his music.

I realize the uploads on this thread are quite dated, but if someone would be kind enough to upload at least one or two pieces, you would make this rasika immensely happy. Thankyou.
