The music of CK is actually old wine in new wineskins. They are from Mella Thiranthathu Kathavu, Mauna Raagam, and the sax sounds to my ears like 'en iniya pon nilave'. In this sense, I was disappointed with the Maestro. However, the old numbers are reorchestrated in a deliciously and refreshingly new way. This may also be because in IR's mind the situation in the CK is much the same as the scenes in Mella Thiranthathu Kathavu and Mauna Raagam, etc.; the only difference is the location: London. So the reorchestration is justifiable. I have personally listened to CK album several times. I can still listen several more times. This is perhaps the IR magic.
