1) No modern MDs have knowledge of melody? Ok, I guess then that the millions of people who flock to buy today's CDs are just lacking melodic sense then or just plain musically dumb? How insulting to the public!
2) We only copied a little because of work pressure but everyone else copies a lot and there is no excuse for that. So, that means that no MDs today have work pressure? They just make music on cloud 9? How childish and arrogant. But, hey, at least you admitted to copying, even if only a little, so where does that leave your credibility? As much as LP deserve the praise and respect from their past works, these kinds of comments make me want to say that LP stands for "Last Place" --- In arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com, "Nagaraj" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi Gopal, > Yes..He has also said a few other things before.. > Few of them.. > 'Present day music directors dont have knowledge of melody.
