Another great find by my good friends Arvind & Costis from their latest excursions in South India. All ripping and editing again done with the help of the benevolent and patient Zwan. Thank you all for that!

We had some good Nadaswaram before and I can promise that there will be more by the brothers coming later. Here and there a little crackly, nothing terrible, the sound is very good and the music is great, especially the Papanasam Sivan composition Pirava Varam in Lathangi!

One of my all-time favorite records. Seriously. So wonderful (but not surprising) to see it pop up here.
