And what a finish – I am guessing this was the last song of the concert.But just look at the numbe of 20 something people who thoroughly enjoyed this song. The song was recorded 33 years ago!!! It’s no wonder all the middle aged people were so happy to listen to this song. The drummer plays with a superb perfection that audience ask for once more (where Ilayaraja makes fun of Mano :)) and the drummer again performs to perfection!!.There are multiple places in this song where the drums catch a specific nerve amongst the audience that you instantly start dancing.Right from the beginning, everyone who is singing is absolutely happy to sing this song.There was just so many happening in this performance: It is very likely that you will play this multiple times and spend more than 7 minutes. Spend next 7 minutes of your life listening to the following. His concerts will be a part of an event to be organised by Kalalaya USA, which was founded in 1992 with a mission of promoting Indian arts and culture in California. Mano perfectly imitates S.P.B’s laugh and Ilayaraja was completely surprised (his reaction and the laugh that follows is simply awesome) The five cities are the San Francisco Bay Area, Dallas, Atlanta, New Jersey and Washington DC. Just listen to this portion of “Pani Vizhum Malar Vanam”. We did several shows all over the country. Bharathiraja a noted Tamil director whom I have known from his stage days, sent Ilayaraja and his brothers to me, said SPB. Not just this performance, any peformance where Mano had sung a S.P.B song would attract comments like “Not even 10% of S.P.B”.īut that didn’t stop Mano from giving his best. This association goes back to the days when Ilayaraja and his two brothers performed at local concerts with their troupe, Pavalar Brothers.

The quality of the show is simply awesome and the post production quality to bring it. Aayiram Malargale Malarungal - Tamil Song - Ilayaraja Live in concert (2011) Enrendrum Raja. Of course, every single person who listened to the songs live that day and on YouTube would compare the performance with S.P.B. This was a concert conducted by Ilayaraja in Singapore in 2018.

But unfortunately Ilayaraja and SPB hadn’t made truce yet (I am glad they ironed their differences in 2019) and Mano was singing all S.P.B songs. Beyond the awesome performance, there were quite a few important life lessons that I learnt. It is now being republished to mark Ilayaraja’s birthday.) There was a crazy amount of reporting around Ilaiyaraja’s gag on SPB singing his compositions in 2016. I have now seen the videos in this playlist many number of times. The quality of the show is simply awesome and the post production quality to bring it to youtube is even more awesome for people like me who missed watching this live. This was a concert conducted by Ilayaraja in Singapore in 2018.
