Link requested

[rshankar]

This is a rather unusual request: is there a link to a version of the ashTalakshmi stOtram sung in the following 8 rAgas in this order: Anandabhairavi, sArangA, vasantA, valaci, kAnaDA, rEvati, sindhubhairavi, and madhyamAvati?
TIA!

[Lakshman]

I have heard it sung in rEvati by Bombay Jayashri. Also in kAnaDA as well as in hamsadhvani but not in rAgamAlikA. The text that I have uses totally different rAgAs. I have not heard this version.

sumanasa vandita. rAgamAlikA. Adi tALA. Composer: Venkatanarayanachar/ Mukkur Shrinivasavaradachariar.

There are umpteen versions including a couple of fusion ones. I checked out quite a few but could not find the one with those set of ragas. The one by Mahanadhi Shobana started with Anandabhairavi which was promising but it did have the ragas you specified. You can try, may be I missed something.

VK: I tried but got a message saying that Spotify is not available in my country.

Ashtalakshmi stotram was popularised by Bombay Sisters. Probably tuned by TKGovinda Rao. It starts with Anandabhairavi and ends with Madhyamavathy. Now I do not remember which are the other ragas in that set. IIRC, it has been released as a commercial casette in 70s.
