The original recordings of the songs 1) Kadirkama Kandan in Kambhoji of Papanasam Sivan 2) Bhajare rechitha in Kalyani and 3) Sri Krishnam Bhaja in Thodi of Muthuswami Dikshitar 4) Chakkaniraja in Kharaharapriya of Thyagarar - popularised by the duo are not available (live and radio concert recordings are there in youtube). Could anyone upload them? They are really a treasure!!

"Among the earliest and most successful female duo singers from 60s to mid 80s were Radha & Jayalakshmi, both students of T R Balasubramanaim, who himself was one of the prime disciples of the Champion vocalist G N Balasubramanian. They were the rage at their peak and had no dearth of concerts. Although they were not related by birth, the sang together till Radha's throat let her down when they gave up their concert career. Their singing was brisk & breezy & Jayalakshmi's voice was sweet, with depth & clarity. One could see the GNB pedigree in their singing."

info- Raadha and Jyalakshmi were cousins. They were born in 1932..They had their training initially under GNB and then under a leading disciple of GNB. also named Balasubramaniam.--who passed away prematurely. Priya Sisters were disciples of Radha-Jyalakshmi.

Raadha-Jayalakshmi are no more.

Nādabhṛṅga is very pleased to share with you an extremely high quality concert of Smt. Radha and Smt. Jayalakshmi at The Music Academy Madras on the evening of the 20th of December, 1971. This is one of the few recordings available, of the sisters performing at The Music Academy. This concert has been digitised and re-mastered to bring you a pristine listening experience. There were a few points where print-over from the other side of the tape came through, which unfortunately could not be completely removed.
