Re: [arr] Revisiting 1947 - Earth (1999) Music Album
I was listening to these songs the other while driving to work and wondering if any other composer of the current era can come up with such an album. The answer would be an emphatic NO. The slow songs of this album have a poisonous addiction about them. This album is greatly neglected by the general public but it takes his fans to heaven time and again.

He used to spend all his time at the recording studio, having just tea and biscuits. Sometimes, he used to suffer from severe stomach ache, late in the nights. Unable to bear the pain, he would just lie down with a pillow pressed tight on his stomach. He would relax and sleep after the killing pain subsided. Barely an hour after he slept it would have already dawned. With the thought that, musicians would be waiting at the studio from 7 am itself, he would wake up and rush for the recording. He didn't have time to even consult a doctor regarding his stomach ache. He would neither tell anyone about this! The other sad story is that, though an amazing composer, Shekar had very few opportunities to compose alone for films, and he just worked for other composers. He gave 10 beautiful songs for the film *Pazhasiraja* . The song *Siragatru veeNoru kochhu thumbi* sung by AM Raja and S.Janaki, and the lullaby Muththey va va va sung by P.Susheela are a pleasure to listen to, even now! The song *Sahibe sahibe a-salam aleikum* became a trendsetter. After a long break, came the movie *Aayesha*. The song *yathrakaara povuga povuga* sung by P. B. Sreenivas for that film is one of PBS's best songs. But, how long can someone financially sustain without getting proper composing opportunities? Days passed, and the cruel hands of the disease clutched RK Shekar tightly. He became bedridden. The images of the young kid, Dileep, visiting his dad every day at the hospital became permanently etched in Dileep's memory. Dad is lying on the hospital bed, surrounded by his assistants. They note down on the music notes dictated by Shekar. A few directors come in and tell him We feel bad to tell this now... But, our film scores will get completed only if you come. Not worrying about the agony caused by the disease, he listens to the tunes and writes notes for music arrangements. Popular lyricist, Sri Kumaran comes and holds Shekar's hands in gratitude, and says Get well soon, and come back. Let's make music together! Theirs was a successful combo, and had given some superb songs. Shekhar returns a dry smile in return, for he was well aware of the seriousness of his disease. The kid, Dileep, watches all this with a mix of amazement and confusion. Dileep couldn't understand what happened to his dad all of a sudden, for he would always be busy like a bee. All he knew was that his dad was a good musician. The collection of musical instruments and music-records formed Dileep's world. Dileep believed that his dad would get well soon, and would be back to his music work very soon. But, that was not to be. Shekar's health condition kept deteriorating each day. Shekar got married only when he was 31, at Thiruppathi. He got married to Kanchana, and had 4 kids, back-to-back - Kanchana, Dileep, Bala and Rekha. Shekar had been making so many innovations in Malayalam film music industry. It was he, who introduced SP Balasubramanyam and Bala

Arvind This is going into Non-ARR arena but cant help clarifying things. Mella Thirantha Kathavu was an album for which MSV collaborated with IR. Both were given credit for the album. Not just that, both did couple of devotional albums too. Coming to Hey! Ram, L.Subramaniam was originally signed for the film. However, Kamal Haasan had a fallout with him and went to his favourite Ilaiyaraaja. The tunes in Hey! Ram, that we hear(d) are completely composed by Ilaiyaraaja and anyone who can follow ilaiyaraaja' s style of music can confirm the same. Infact, if you can youtube a bit, you can find videos of recording sessions of that album. None of the L.Subramaniam' s tunes were used in the film and Ilaiyaraaja being a strict disciplinarian has never allowed/took credit for any other composer (exception being his son Karthik Raaja, who worked on couple of pieces in some of IR albums such as Raasaiyya). It happened only once, in 1977, when he was forced to use a superhit Hindi song in telugu and he reluctantly had to give in that time, since he did not have much voice in the industry. I am aware that this is purely Non-ARR topic, but i wanted to clarify so that facts are known about all the artists involved (be it L.Subramaniam, Ilaiyaraaja, MSV). Coming to Punnaghai Mannan Theme, if we have any musicbuffs here who are knowldegeable about Ilaiyaraaja' s composition style and his school of thought, they can vouch that the theme music was composed by him. ARR programmed it and his contribution was not miniscule. I would credit the track to both. But the tune, it has IR written all over it.

And, one more thing - your statement that e.one knows that ir want to be the sole personin creating music in his films is not true either! With due respect to Ilayaraja, there have been quite a few cases where someone else has composed the music and IR has got the credit.. The recently well documented one is that of the song Ooru Sanam (and a few other songs too) in Mella Thirandhadhu Kadhavu which was composed by MSV, but it was credited to IR! When IR was at his peak, and MSV had almost hit his nadir, he was working as a an arranger for IR's recordings and Mella Thirandhadhu Kanavu was one such project where MSV worked for IR... and MSV actually composed the tune. S.Janaki revealed this a few years back in JAYA TV Raagamalika show in the presence of MSV, and has made it a point to bring this up in almost every stage show she attends! Most of the songs in Hey Ram were composed by Legendary Violinist L Subramaniam, who was initially the composer of the film... He mentioned very clearly in his Kumudam interview that most of the Hey Ram tunes were his, and he felt very very bad that he wasn't credited, and instead IR was credited! With such a history, it is hard to doubt the news that AR composed PunnagaiMannan theme, but was not credited! All the assumptions on which you make ur arguments dont hold good!

Saanse Uljhe Dhadke Yeh Dil...Jaane Kaisi Meri Mushquil.Hogii Asan.. lines are an absolute treat to listen to! The other version which retains the male singer and replaces the female with Sukhwinder Singh is equally melodious and impactful Theme Music and Piano Music What is an ARR album without his signature instrumental pieces.?! Call it Awesome, Stupendous, Spectacular, Marvellous..all praising adjectives fall complete flat to describe the feel these two instrumental pieces brings in..!! An absolute delight!
