Friends,
Uploading here, for all you classical music fans, are songs I digitally remastered from a rare gem of a Vinyl LP of the acclaimed Kannada movie, ' Hamsageethe' by the late great G.V.Iyer. The movie came out in 1970s starring another Kannada great, Anant Nag in the lead role, was very good. Anant Nag was flat-out superb in the role of a Yogi & Classical musician and the direction by Iyer was excellent.
The music itself stands out separate. G.V.Iyer, before he passed away, claimed that the music was actually scored by T.G.Lingappa, while in public when the movie came out, the credit went to Dr.Balamuralikrishna since neither Lingappa nor B.V.Karanth ( who scored the background music ) were willing to accept it. This is one of those movies where it is hard to critique because its a first-rate job all around. I am sure people who have seen this movie would agree. Enjoy!

I am sorry.... Inspite of cable broadband Internet service, I am not able to upload songs of 'Hamsageethe' today because HF server seems to be overwhelmed. I have been trying for the past hour and I am calling it a day. I'll give it another shot later on.....

Hello MPRanjan
I saw your message seeking the songs from Hamsageethe. I was the one who uploaded them here. You may not be able to download the songs unless you upload some stuff. If you are still interested, I can perhaps send you a CD of Hamsageethe if you let me know your address in the U.S. However, if you are in India or elsewhere, I can e-mail the songs to you.
Here's my e-mail address for you to communicate with me directly....

bikerbear@yahoo.com

Let me know what you want and we'll go from there. Okay?

Hello MPranjan,
Nice to hear from you. However, the e-mail address I gave you was wrong. Your mail may have bounced back. It was stupid of me. So here is the correct ones.

bikersham@yahoo.com
r_shama@hotmail.com


Forward your mail to both the addresses, so I'll get at least one. Let me know where you are ( in India or elsewhere ) and how you want me to send you the songs of Hamsageethe. Thank you.

Sincerely,
