Dear Friends:
Whats given below is the summary review while I requested the product, which came up as a review. PLease ignore the text and the comments below as I am working on a detailed version of a review on this album. I am planning to take the time to do a detailed analysis on the album and hence might take a few days before it is posted.
Thanks for your co-operation,
Krishnakumar
The Vellithira album is a malayalam musical album released in 2003. Though I was in Kerala at that time, I was busy with many unrelated (but serious) issues with my paperwork, and hence did not buy a CD or hear to the songs closely. When I used to do windowshopping, I used to see the poster of this movie with the caption that the music director was a debutante.
Things drastically changed when I had a chance to watch the movie. The musical experience was mind-blowing, atleast for me. Not because the songs were hits, or because the tunes were peppy, but because the musical sense that I saw all through the different songs was un-mistakable. The re-recording of the different musical interludes were so intricately done that all my frustration (in lack of good instrumentation/orchestration in Malayalam songs) was wiped out. This is a great album. I am planning to describe the individual tracks and how they could be termed as different from others.
Cheers, KK
