nAttai RTP must have been a rare treat.

Thank you Svaapana for the list.

Maiya Mori is a Surdas composition however.

rajeshnat,

I thought Gurucharan rushed through the Natai raga alapanai. The pallavi swaram was quite elaborate, He sang gowlai, arabhi, sri, varali(in that order first) then in the reverse order. Gamakakriya was sung very well for over 70 mts. The neraval specially reminded me of KVN.

Thanks Cienu for the correction.
