Sri Krishna mani Iyer was a contemporary of Sri Palghat Mani Iyer. A fantastic mridangam player, unfortunately, did not have the luck of Sri Mani Iyer, but, had a very decent career with AIR, Bangalore. Not much is known about him, outside of Bangalore. I am looking for some recorded concerts where he has accompanied any artist....if some one has it, would you please contact me thru this forum. I would be grateful for any input on this.....regards.....Sam

Yes sir and that is the reason for this request. He is very devoted to his guru so much so, he includes him in offering his regular rituals that he performs for the departed elders of our family ( I hope you understand what I mean, with out going into greater details). When I was with him recently, he lamented the fact that he does not even have a tape of his guru playing, even though he himself has worked in AIR for more than 2 decades. The officialdom is so possessive about their "cache" of tapes etc even employees have no access...I want to do my best to get my hands on one or two tapes of his guru so that Easwarn's mind is at rest.
I would appreciate any help in this area....regards
