Normally Iam the person who justifies if someone brings a COPY allegation against ARR. But for this one... Iam not doing that. This is nothing like a genre similarity or a co-incidence. The SAME musical piece of MEMPHIS STOMP is played in the prelude of Hello Mr. Ethirkatchi. Exactly the same piece of notes for atleast the first 20 seconds. 100% same! Maybe, it was a result of jamming with the keyboard player..and maybe ARR liked this piece played by the player. (ARR might not have known that it is an existing piece).
But the rest of the song is ARR's own GEM!! Always remember, in ARR songs such inspirations are very very rare. If u take his predecessors, they have lifted complete songs. ARR never has one such song in his 18 year old career! ARR is legendary. On Wed, Aug 18, 2010 at 3:43 AM, Madhavan Rajan <rsamadhu2...@gmail.com>wrote: > > > Please visit Karthik's itwofs.com .
