Month: November 2024

Thanks to all for the shows this wknd nov 2024. I know how much we are loved. I thank those who love me for loving me. There is no doubt I am a link in the chain. A John Brute world it is.

All our music can be found on https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/music

A track from our latest full band album, how do you live? how is your lifestyle?

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/they-dont-live-that-lifestyle

…..So to try and “over stand” the world. I created a character called John Brute. He is a homage to those that raised me and those who I still look to for guidance because I dont like to loose. I am a winner. Always first. Because I know how The Brutes of the world work. I studied my opposition. I studied so you can learn. Shall we begin a little instruction to function and make sure your heart gets all the blood it needs….

Above a pic from Allison at the George and Dragon pub in Salisbury 22.11.24 with our world citizen folk band. Thanks to that lovely crew.

….To Really know as a dreamer as a idealist how the world is. Or why cant people get on? One must study hate. Theater’s of hate through out this world. Hate dominates every race every faith every structure. Look at history. Look at what icons and idols they are. Look at how they are remembered and look at how they lived. Those famous demi Gods. Those gun toting weapon wearing blood thirsty champions. Those who are Brutes and they in a sense are our opposition they study hate. 7 days a week. 24 hours a day. Non stop.

Above our main support for Salisbury was chk his band full band sound 22.11.24 https://hungryandthehunted.bandcamp.com/

….They pay top minds/killers/security/private companies/ all over the world to work with them to hurt those who oppose them. They wish to destroy humiliate and maim and kill ANYONE who does not surrender or submit or agree. Till they are wiped out. You are not singing anymore. A famous chant of the Brute is “You are not singing anymore.”

“You love singing Babar”, a Brute told me when I was young. He then said, “So Babar you have to win”, “Winning is everything.” To the Brute it is everything. They work obsessively to destroy their opponent 7 days a week 24 hours a day 365 days a year…

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/feet-on-the-ground

….To those who gave me that sauce pictured above, will know the magnitude of the opposition we face. The objective from our perspective is to continue to oppose fascism that is within us and outside us. It comes from human thought and importantly soon as when one thinks one is better then anyone else then one has lost.

….WE have lost when we think we are greater then better then bigger then more deserving then anyone else. We are all equal we all need love we all need care we all need support. We all can be free. Other peoples freedom should not cost you your freedom. If it does then communication peaceful resolutions must be sought.

The above picture is a new kitty. She is called Maggie. For Maggie the Magnificent. I have a niece called Magnificent in that case. We stayed with Polly, a lovely, on one of the night’s away, the wknd gone. We were also blessed to hang with a friend of a bro called Steve. Who used to know Mark and the Astronauts. From the alt legends Mark and the Astronauts. Simply put by Steve, “A great band Babar simply did not sell out.” That is why you have not heard of them,I only heard of them recently myself.

A link to a album made by Pog inspired by Mark and the astronauts.

https://pogband.bandcamp.com/album/hope-you-got-to-see-it

That is the John Brute world we live in. Do you think that leaders of industry and commerce would allow Mark and the Astronauts into their club? One lives it or one does not. There are no rewards or prices for being free to most you simply do not exist. Or simply dont deserve to exist.

One of our better songs about this world.

The above is mr Dortmund our percussionist and drummer for some of our recent units. The above is him in the “zone” playing with us in Salisbury 22.11.24 as part of the World citizen folk band.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/spaceship-2

Above a photo of me and Bethan the violinist doing a show 23.11.24 at a radical space. A space that allows all voices that are able to speak to speak. Within that there must be respect and able to be flexible. Those spaces that defend the minorities in society are being wiped out. I was told when young “One judges a society by how it treats it’s minorities not how it treats it’s majority.” A lot of sense in that. It is a John Brute world.

A song inspired by the Doors “people are strange” made by our electric Rock band East End Trinity.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/am-i-strange

The above is Miffy. A very friendly animal. Also before I forget thanks to Steve for driving us. A Gasshead he is. If you know u know. Top man and not many do for me what he has done. Love to him and his whole family.

Pictured above. A new book I am reading. A turmeric latte. A sett list. A panana custard thing . The last two books I have read one was by Octavia Butler a black female American sci=fi writer called the book was Dawn. The other book i have recently read The Runaways by Fatima Bhutto about escape by the Bhutto bloodline a very powerful Pakistan based family.

….A song about Money. I am told to seek it more to chase it more. I do try. It is important as the importance one putts on it. I am told it is essential. It is definitely needed in this paradigm.

On that point Do chk our website and chk our merch.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/runn-money

The above chap a hero to many. I am told he was a brute. As stated before sometimes it takes bad men to get bad men. We of the Empire idolized him and many still do. Again he has had some very good pres. Also a part of the upper echelons of Brutes.

A song about us. Humility and trying to be more aware of the bigger picture. As we started this slog /blog we are just links in the chain.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/chain-of-transmission

So dear Luck family we try to be real as they come. Picture above,that is me tucking into a cake. As described offstage and onstage we believe everybody should get a good slice of the proverbial cake.

till next time live love be loved be brave

It takes long time to finish things as a creative person. As a genius on a budget. A fool hardy fellow. A miscreant. A irritant. Well when one supports a Football team in the lower depths of the premiership. Like me spaceship. Sun Ra watches over me. In the white sky with black stars. I could recite lyrical but it is only you and I. Possibly a few others. What I represent is truth if at all possible. We continue to make the impossible possible. New birth. New day. New Dawn. Celebratory mood. A life that’s lived with love it passes with Joy. Every day we shed tears. As well as joy.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/travel-that-road

Cant keep a good man down. I ain’t the good guy though. Those that know me know me. So when my opponents try and G me out u cant. U cant fight a mad man. Sometimes it takes bad men to get bad men. The corporate elites and corporate oligarchs. What’s that about? Thank you those elders that raised me for giving me truth. If you study the world it may present it self. If you dont think and simply follow. You will always be in the dark. Everything belongs to a bigger cause a deeper resonance. A greater truth. Do I resonate? As uncle Nutts R.i.P said “F..k em b..h em s..t them out”. That’s the world mentality. It is a John Brute world.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/stand-down

The world citizen folk band above. Don’t we look Joyous? Well it has been a 14 month pregnancy. The album called Resistance is done. It is the fifth and the final album of that sound. Violin Spanish acoustic guitar and percussion. Be out next year all being well. All our music is on one platform. Also you can get stuff from our website.

Those sweet musicians on either side of me like all those that I try and cajole to play with me reach me for different reasons. They stay as long as they can bear me and my lifestyle. It is bigger thing we battle with. It’s not about no chords and bars and beats and melodies. Or those outro’s and intros. Also I get rid of them I blank them I also ignore them. That’s also how I deal with them. No hard feeling though. I wish all of them the best in life. I did not study leadership or was the top student. I was not even in the room. I ain’t so bad…As I am sure they wish me the best. No it is not ONLY music.

https://www.facebook.com/adiehardymusic That chap is a top producer recording guy and a musical helper. Check him out.

So many tears and that fear and that nagging doubt. People of love and peace. Those that speak about LOVE are attacked and vilified . Spirituality has lost its meaning. Always the divine before mankind. This happens because Love is not only hug’s and cuddles and the intimacy. Those heroes never stopped loving humanity. Those heroines never gave up on their children. The bigger picture is we carry on the best we can. Cant kill truth. Live love be loved be brave.

Does Hettie pictured below that sweet little lady look bothered by the world? No. She is loved and protected as best as those that love and protect she. We have a understanding. She know me a soft sweet cuddly man. I think animals have the ability to simply run with their instincts and simply be their selves. Of course they want to be fed and watered. We all need that. U deny that then there is trouble. Who could deny food and shelter to Hettie?

Luna the cat below does she look worried about the future? Stop worrying and chill. she says. …

But but but…..no But from what I can see we in this decadent west we who are a appendage to the largest decadent nation we as a government appease support allow assist the powers that be to be cruel and vicious and pretend we dont have blood on our hands? You what? We who simply enjoy enjoy enjoy rest party party party rest eat eat eat rest sleep sleep sleep rest.

I know how lucky I am. I am grateful to be able to live and speak and shout and scream and cry and cry and then wake and shout and scream …music is a remedy. As are many other things. Enjoy the battle between the good and the bad and you choose what side. I know who I am. I know what side I have chosen. ha ha hee hee …..till next time

Those little mercies. Those brief moments of silence from the deafening noise. It is not OK. We have seen too much, lived too long. Raven the cat, a young one she is. The spirituality of cats is oft discussed in spiritual books from all over the world. I wonder what she is thinking? Will I get fed? Will I be loved? Where are the treats? Those eyes who could look into them and say no?

All the musical links are from vast variety of music over two decades.

Available from a platform for independent musicians.

Also, you can buy from our website some things. That’s my sales pitch. I am a capitalist as well. Thank you.

Extreme cruelty to humans exists throughout the world all the time. Twenty four hours a day. We all have causes to shout about. Depending how awake we are. Most stay asleep. I have discussed this dont want to dwell on it. I got no specific ax to grind I sleep well most of the time. I do cry I do shed tears and do disengage with those who dont feel what I feel. We scream we shout. Most of us march if we can. Feel me?

Children play with those kind of animals when young featured above. The lucky child who owns those above has a zoo of cuddly animals. I think she deserves them. Good luck to she. They deserve everything and I am sure it is difficult to look into her eyes and say No.

A church above that has the remains of me step fathers uncle. He was a Luck. The symmetry of my life is a sweet circle. I am supersensitive. I hurt easy. I break easy. I mean well. Trust I cry tears for all injustices. Even those caused by me. The failure to be a human is not just the territory of a warring machine or the corrupt oligarch.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/runn-money

Simply putt to understand mankind’s folly requires blind hatred. That is where we are now. Where we have always been. Trust me people really do hate. It takes great deal of blind anger to maintain. To pass it on to ones children also requires cruelty to ones own first. This sadness continues throughout the world.

We are from a history of readers and writers. I personally dont read as much as I should. But to be aware of history how society works one has to study. The study needs to be from a variety of sources. Not just your friends recommendations. And that little homely cozy snug feeling we get…

The above book has a essay within it written by one of our musical friends. Do chk it out. The link to that is above. We return to the studio to complete our final album of that chapter in our musical life. It will also have mr. Dortmund present. #worldcitizenfolkband that is. Link below one of our better songs more of a rock song then a folk song but we are common folk.

The best picture I can find of me and me my friend above . I think she is laughing at one of me jokes. Possibly as I about to say bye she is glad to be rid of me. I returning to her town again to work on some music. Babar Luck and Lovers is the album project title. The album is “Screams in the dark ” possibly ready 2025/26/27…

we have three albums slowly being prepared before that one.

Love that picture above . A T shirt purchased by a true love for me. It implies I am always thinking too much. Or Not thinking enough? I dont know but we have a desire to improve and learn. What more can we do….till next time

Forgiveness is not easy. Have you tried? People want warring nations to stop fighting. Yet we cant even in our own families find peaceful resolutions. Within our own splintered groups, there is constant bickering distrust and genuine stupidity. Within our bloodlines the inability to communicate, or wish goodwill or simply to let go seems unobtainable.

All links are of our music made with wonderful musicians over the last two decades. All our music can be found on one platform. One can purchase stuff from our website as well.

My father was from Amritsar India and my mother from Uttar Pradesh. Just tapped in Amritsar to”uncle google” what turns up? In 1919 there was a massacre by the British led by Brigadier Reginald Dyer assisted by Gurkha soldiers…That was the British empire. And how well we served our masters then. We still do. Meaning the children of the Empire have been so well indoctrinated. They will head over heels protect represent the British empire. Oh what a golden age it was. Oh how well we still serve it.

I write like a “Gora/white”, a westernized monkey a ape a silver backed Gorilla (which is what I am or would prefer to be) I know what I know if you know whatimean… If it was not for the likes of “Uncle Ron” A great British man a Englishman #uncleronisneverwrong who speaks honestly as he is “old and it dont matter anymore” OR “the filter is off”. Uncle Ron can be wrong as he does not support West Ham F.c. nor should anyone but I do. (Harsh but fair) Also a few other honest wonderful humans. My step father he was white,English and Scottish that’s not his fault. Simply where he was born and raised. He had A level A grade art and A level A grade English language and he loved early Pink Floyd, Camel, Yes, Barclay James Harvest, was A original Green Loved mother earth more then me mother. That is saying something.

Forgiveness is bloody difficult. It seems war is something that gives us meaning. Don’t quote me quote more learned and far superior “truthseekers” “visionaries” and just smarter humans. They are out there. Not all can have the clarity of Robert Fisk or the humanity of Cornel West or the “vision” of Fred Hampton. Francesca Albanese, Kahama Sawant, Katie Halper, Briana Joy Gray …there are far too many good humans who speak truth to power. All over this world.

He crossed over, over time. That writer above. Of course born into privilege. But he did not ask for it. He took what he had and did his best. He wrote lott’s. We in our decadent western UK/USA/mainland Europe/have choices. We have a life of ease and luxury. As I tell all who care to listen writers write. Musicians make music. Don’t talk about it. Do it. Do what you love find a passion stick to it. Do you. Find you. You will change. Embrace it. Sweat it out. Work on it. Where there is a will there is a way. If I can make it possible in my life Wherever I am there is pen paper poetry guitar tea/coffee making facilities and a lust for life and other vices….dare I say.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/choices

From below to the above. In every nation in this world there are great humans. Trying to find ways to make peace and harmony possible. To make the world more tolerable. I am not close to or even able to jump into that pool of learning. I am in. I swim. Not like others who are graceful elegant and at one with it all. I try my best. Then I try again. I seek forgiveness from all who I have hurt in any shape or form. I try to do better. As expressed in love there is forgiveness and acceptance. In idealism there is truth and justice. till next time….
