There is a lot of arguments and disagreement about the ability of Yesudas' classical singing. But when I read your blog about his concert I thought it would be appropriate to mention about a community in orkut where the members are giving a lot of abuse to Mr. Yesudas about his classical knowledge. <BR/>If you don't mind, please visit this community and react as I have know knowledge of music to fight with them. the link as follows: http://www.orkut.com/Community.aspx?cmm=6886609<BR/>thank you very much.kavithrayamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03836668801768073885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16883572.post-1147878258929484542006-05-17T20:34:00.000+05:302006-05-17T20:34:00.000+05:30Sir,I am not sure whether Kumar Gandharva-ji had a...Sir,<BR/>I am not sure whether Kumar Gandharva-ji had any Kerala links!<BR/><BR/>Yesudas is a great singer and has a voice like honey. His film songs are unparalled.. there is this song called "adisaya rAgam" from the tamil movie Apoorva Raagangal (1975) which is timeless piece. <BR/><BR/>But, there are certain instances where as a classical singer, he has been quite filmy, so to say!<BR/><BR/>He perhaps didn't make it big in hollywod due to his thick accent.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16883572.post-1147626111598785242006-05-14T22:31:00.000+05:302006-05-14T22:31:00.000+05:30Hi there!Nice post.

To the best of my knowledge, Pt.Kumar Gandharwa belonged to Lingayat sub sect of Hindus and was a resident of Belgaum district in North Karnataka. His real name is Shivpurtappa Komkalimath. <BR/>Without doubt, K.J.Yeudas is a great singer. Unfortunately he could'nt make it big in Bollywood. But bollywood's loss is clasical music's gain!drsundeephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04225636826534231775noreply@blogger.com
