Some Beautiful Devotional Songs Of Bhimsen Joshi Options

[Yadavagiri5]

I will be uploading some melodious devotional songs of Bhimsen Joshi. BJ has resung and rerecorded many of these songs, but I like his earlier versions. It is my feeling that as years roll by his singing is being dominated more and more by Veera Rasa which does not go well with devotional songs. So with two exceptions, I am uploading only older versions. I am uploading two versions of Karuniso Ranga and there is another later version which I do not like very much. Here is the first set of songs:

Thanks ever so much! A lot of the earlier songs you have uploaded are songs we used to have on EP records but that I haven't heard in over a decade now. Thank you for bringing back those days!

Are the 3 songs in the last set from the LP "Daasvani"? I already have that but would like to download any that may be different versions. I ask because in your introduction you said you were uploading only two later renditions (I presume you meant "Daasvani" by that).

I agree with you 100% about the unnecessarily aggressive singing in his later renditions. That makes those earlier EP recordings all the more precious.

Thanks and warm regards,
Abhay

Dear Abhay,

Thanks for your comments. I am not 100% sure, but the three songs from the last set are most probably from Daasvani.
