Although I have read quite a lot on this forum about Sri Manakal Rangarajan, and the esteem in which he is held by experienced rasikas, it is only in recent years that I have come to his music (introduced, I think, by "the member formally known as Cool") and have seen him sing a few times. All I can say is that his music is wonderful, as is his defiance of age.

Humbly adding my congratulations.
