Recently, I started reviewing the recordings of Emani Sankara Sastry so that I could share his recordings on this blog. And surprisingly tucked away among the various concerts of Emani (solo, with MSG and with Lalgudi), the third part of a concert with the tail end of the concert had a recording of K J Yesudas with M S Gopalakrishnan and T V Gopalakrishnan (not named but easily determined). There is no information on the date of the concert or its location and unfortunately not complete either.

Here you have Yesudas with his wonderful voice and great accompaniment which I enjoyed very much and hope you will too.

• varNam – nATTai
• vAtApi gaNapatim – hamsadwani
• brOva bArama – bahuDari
• manasulOni marmalanu – hindOLam
• illAdadai virumbi kETTugirAi  – mAyAmALavagowLa

Having mentioned Emani at the onset, I will be sharing the recordings of his in the near future.
