>Thanks for the information about the new CDs! I haven't heard any CD with >Ghantasala songs sofar. But often people complain that the recording quality >is poor. Is it still the case? From the various postings -announcing the >release of new CDs - made by you, Krishna Kandadai and Panini gaaru Certainly the quality of some of the CD's is bad, but, i think they are worth buying because out of 16 odd songs on a CD at least 10 songs are recorded in the average or above grade. >> Query(1): Are there two films: SriikAkula AndhramahAvishuvu katha and >> Andhramahavishnuvu katha? or is it only one film. >No, there is only one and the earlier title you quoted is correct. It is from >1966, *ing NTR, jamuna. Music by penDyaala. E-TV (or DD-8) showed it in >early Nov.. Have an interesting anecdote to narrate about the song: vallabhaa >priya vallabhaa, from B. vasanta, who wished to sing it, but Pendyala opted >for Susila. Here, i have to disagree with Sreenivas, I have the song vallabha priya vallabha, but is sung by S. Janaki, under pendyAla and AIR announcer announces the movie name as Andhra mahAvishnuvu katha. There is another song "sukhapaDuTe sukhamai parugiDa nee janmam", a solo by ghanTasAla attributed to the movie Andhra mahAvishnuvu katha by an AIR announcer. The reason for the above query is: a visitor to my web site mentions that the song "kuSalamA kuSalamA eTanunTivo priyatamA" played on amaravani last week is from SrikAkula AndhramahAvishnuvu katha, which made me think if there are two films. >Since the title: mEnarikam, is mentioned .... Does anyone know more about >this film? I just have one song - not a great number - which is on the L.P: >marapuraani madhura gEyaalu (I wonder how this song was selected!). Can you please let us know what the song is Sreenivas. Thanks, Regards, -rAja (rAjaSEKar vElamUri) -- mailto:inside94@email.msn.com http://members.tripod.com/~rvelamuri
