T.M Sounderarajan- T.M. Sounderarajan (HMV/EMI, 1971)


"T.M.Sounderarajan was the famous Playback Singer in Tamil film industry. He was born on 24th March,1923 at Madurai. He was the first singer to introduce the stereo system in tamil songs. He was popularly and shortly called as TMS. TMS is still actively singing for tamil film industry. TMS married in his early age. He was studied only SSLC but his voice of songs were very top all over South India." (Source)

Had it not been spelled out by the cover notes, I would've never guessed that these were devotionals. Sounderarajan's playback pedigree shines through his vocal delivery and the bouyant, upbeat arrangements of the songs. This is great stuff. 320 vinyl rip by yours truly.
