Hi,

Continuing on this topic, what abt the prelude to the superb tms-ps no "Pesuvathu Kiliya" in panathottam. The original prelude, which is seen in the movie, is a lengthy one with vioilin prominent before the bango drums starts to synchronise with mgr knocking saroja devi on the head with his knuckles from the top of the fiat car.

The interludes between the stanzas is the same but for the subtle difference in that the first one uses violin and the second one uses accordion most prominently. It is these sorts of subtle differences that the great duo of VR bring which captivates the listerners to this day.

For the information this movie was released in 1963 or so - and the song as well as most others in this movie - for example the drunken duet "javvadi medayittu, sakkarayil pongalittu" and the tms solo (a ypical mgr no) 'Heh ennathan nadakkum nadakkatume, irutinil needhi marayattume" - have stood the test of time for almost half a century. No need to say more!
