Dear SPB Fans,
This post brings to you one of our SPB's earlier landmarks which is "30 years of singing, 30,000 songs and his 50 golden years of life". This first stage of achievement was celebrated on a very grand scale at Music Academy Auditorium in Chennai in the year 1996. I was blessed to attend this program amidst all odds (without a ticket !!!?) and i had posted a brief write-up of my experience when i had joined this SPB fan group in November 2006. At that time, some of our friends were enquiring if a video recording of this program was available. I do not have any clue to that. However, thanks to our Covai Ravee, i was able to get my hands on the audio compilation of the program and i thought it appropriate to share it with you all, with due permission from our friend Covai Ravee who provided the audio MP3 files of this concert.
As said earlier, this achievement of our SPB was celebrated on a grand scale. Popular and Famous personalities attended this program. I am just naming a few from my memory
Chief Minister Karunanidhi
MS Subhalakshmi
Lata Mangeshkar
S Janaki
P Susheela
Rajinikanth
Kamalahasan
Vaali
BharathiRaja
The program was compered by GangaiAmaran, one of our SPB's close friends who had been with him right from those earlier years of his singing career and has grown with him professionally also.
The interior decoration and art work on the stage for this show was done by "Thottaa Tharini" a popular art director who had started his career almost at the same time as our SPB. They share a lot of commonness between them.
I will now stop boring you all with my own experience.
I am sure you all would love this. This runs to almost 2 hours and it consists of speeches by most of the above personalities, SPB's introductory speech about his inspirations and then his many songs sung in the concert. The only sore point is that this program is entirely in Tamil and fans not familiar with Tamil may not be able to understand the speech portions of the program. However one can have the satisfaction of listening to his songs atleast.
Wishing you all happy listening
