Crown & Sceptre Top Night 28.10.25

Musicians make music. Musicians like to play Live. I have done more live shows then most musicians. Not as many as B.B.King or some of my inspirations. But we have done plenty of live shows. Nu’ff Of Dem.

The last two years have been very dramatic. There will be consequences for the choices peoples have made these last two years. Some creatives some of me friends and most of humanity have fallen way short of what is required to be a decent human. And Of course, including me.

The picture above firstly the Queen of the establishment. The boss lady. She knows she is always loved by me. Also Two great musicians (not including me ha ha hee hee ) one who played solo with me on that show 24.10.25

He has done some guitar work on me solo projects over the years. Hungry and Hunted is the name of the band. Azam Khan is the main guy, his rocking albums do chk

The other chap pictured above in the first picture the tall man. I played with his wonderful band first time five years ago and the last time 6 months ago very good they are Dog of man he was there at pub merely as a spectator.

Do chk that link below.

I always like what I like and pass on links to that type of music.

Do investigate looking at the notes on their blurb and info I notice a thread he knows peoples that know the BORG…..the Borg is a confidante and a friend (he thinks I am a fool) but I know I am a fool……he tolerates me and helps if he can.

I am also his favorite Muslim. The non practicing kind. A joke within a joke I am a niche within a niche.

Dog of man say in their blurb and info “Big thanks to Stuffy & co at Brixton Hill Studios & everyone else who has supported us along the way”.

I have mett Stuffy via the Borg. I now Brixton London UK

Above a tail of two cats. A wall between them. They meet and chat when humans are not around to fuss over them.

In life there will be greater and more crucial endings. For my own well being. Those who I have blocked ended or argued with or simply putt out of my mind wish you all the best. Hope we don’t meet again. Age requires distance.

“Harsh but fair”, as AB of East End Trinity fame and Steve white and the protest family drummer man may say.

AB and I are the same people in a way that’s why we love each other. Purely platonic though ….I think ……

A bit of outrageous drumming and Prog type love song from East End Trinity I also sing in Urdu/punjabi our mother tongue. On that track.

Back to this slog/blog…..

Top live show for us in stroud uk this wknd gone in oct 2025. Thanks to some friends old and new who made that night very special. Love to play live if there is respect a bit of money food and drink a place to sleep….if needed….some breakfast…. The Crown and Scepter in Stroud UK gave us that in abundance and we had a real good time…..

The morning after the show we explored the farmers market in Stroud. I was introduced to a few associates of the boss lady. We marveled and took part in the tasting of some tasty bites.

Above the solitary grey cat. Without their buddy. Those eyes are to die for….or to run from.

Above apples. Uk has a vast variety of apples. A very limited amount appear in the supermarkets and shops alike. Think globally act locally. Below a farmers son with his mum and daughter. He does his very best to support and look after his family.

Below a invite for next year of another man trying his very best with his partner and children. He not half of what he was I less then half of what I was. Man can change and embrace humility silence and seek a quieter existence. There are many ways to live.

Below mera bhai. My bhai from another mother. Again a wise man who trys to do his best. Life can be a wonderful thing. It does not have to be what our leaders and rulers decree. Only with courage tack and candidness we can find some peace. It is always compromise and it is always work. Hard work.

Our next new full length album is made and ready to get out. We are as we speak sorting the cd’s. Also some other stuff. Please do chk our corporate youtubechannel and do SUBSCRIBE we want to get more SUBSCRIBERS….ha ha hee hee …..chk the two songs we have highlighted from our future release….

So That is the end of this weeks weekly writing. I call it a slog as the Borg says “Babar is writing his own history and narrative in weekly digestible chunks.”

who controls the narrative? who controls the money? who decides the future? Singing in our voice and speaking truth to power YES our subjective truth.

Live love be loved be brave.

Only then can we find contentment and some levels of Joy.

Unsung Heroes 21.10.25

Many unsung heroes out there. It is apparent from a very young age I would sing their names. In my own way and with total belief. I know and over stand bullies. I have had to deal with them and myself all me life. They tend to fear me and keep their distance. I lay low avoid the noise. I am not afraid of consequences or of myself anymore. I aim at you. We are all complicit all guilty.

https://youtu.be/BjsB9bO1fTI?si=BElsnSSk_ij2Y230

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/stand-down-2

Two versions of the same song above. And some unsung heroes pictured above.

A new song highlighting the next album we will release called Resistance.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/true-believer

The song link above is a Rock and roll song and that music the loud shouty type is me first love. I also still make electric loud music. Named East End Trinity. The Logo the cross and crescent representing a unity. Below a cheeky song in true east end style.

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

Below the logo the cross and crescent. East End Trinity a link to all those EET albums.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/album/east-end-trinity the first album the most produced

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/album/chukka the second the heavy ist one

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/album/dry the third album somewhere in between the two above

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/album/vier the fourth and if I had to choose me fave album of that sound so far defo more mainstream rock but the lyrics always outside mainstream ideas….meaning from the people ……

we have the next one ready called “Spice on Spice” that be for next year 2026.

The new album this year 2025 is coming!!! BY our World citizen folk band. Another video below we highlighted another song we LOVE

Do investigate ……….subscribe to our youtube channel if you like. Give us a thumbs up go against the algoriddim – we got Riddim

It does not matter to me what bullies think and how badly they will beat me. I know how badly the same badly as I Beat those who wronged me. I keep me distant but cant stay silent.

I know the leaders of this world and their “cruel vicious violence” and how brilliant they are at violence. Tune in to mainstream media and it is basically a exhibition of why you should keep silent.

Whilst the good amongst us with their debating just covers the vulgar violence being carried out. Me being harsh. I do think debating and arguing and convincing is part of what makes peace and a good future. To much talk too little action.

Our governments have chosen their allegiance. Winning is paramount.

I know I am a winner.

We are looking for more shows. We have one this friday 24.10.25. Stroud UK. Thanks to the landlady and O and local friends. It be me solo uncut and most deadly. We have wonderful solo support as well. Both acts solo and acooostik.

The way of the samurai one studies ancient techniques. There is nobility in defeat. There are winners and the other kind. So some will have to haunt their adversaries nightmares. Till justice is done.

Cowards are never respected. Cowards get the worse punishment. Trust.

Firstly and lastly we are a musician we make music.

check our merchandise ON OUR WEBSITE…..

All our music is on https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/music

Talk to your local venues. Tell them “you need a bit of LUCK”.

Plucky & Lucky 15.10.25

Plucky is a lovely dog. A new dog for the blog. He can be found along the river somewhere near Derby. I was honored to meet the “lovers” once again. We have attempted to record some new songs in live format. I refer you to some pictures from the last week. All our wonderful music can be found on one platform.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/music

Below is the chap who took the picture of me above he happens to be one of the main characters of a album that was made by he and many friends check it out.

The invisible orchestra.

https://theinvisibleorchestra.bandcamp.com/album/champagne-taste-lemonade-money?search_item_id%3D2691309176%26search_item_type%3Da%26search_match_part%3D%253F%26search_page_id%3D4744397159%26search_page_no%3D0%26search_rank%3D4=

I also collaborated with them on track a while ago. Which was a song where I wrote most of the words beforehand. Very focused we was. The bass player of the unit wrote that tune.

Above the main chap who sorted this project. The amazing James. Who has had to tolerate me untogetherness and talking. Also having to organise just 4 peoples including me to get those tunes done. We may get there soon. But the music is great and the musicians are wonderful musicians.

Our next album to be out is the one pictured above. Babar Luck’s world citizen folk band. we have highlighted two tracks from that album. It is the fifth album of that sound. Do chk our youtube channel on that corporate platform. also watch all videos on our “Vids” section of the website.

Again being someone who is not very good at communicating and doing the normal things. One can have excuses but if one is honest one is far from capable of dealing with “normal” existence. The “normal” work for me is impossible. This includes families and friends and careers and lifestyle. Again normality has scared me as it has many before me. I take proverbial hat off to anyone who can make that balance and maintain friendship’s and families.

Below is cat called pixie looked after by one of my amazing children and their amazing mother.

Below is a portrait created by the younger child who is also looked after by their amazing mother. Although both are very independent now. Not a day passes when I don’t think of them. Children are always loved the adults may not be able to express that as life skills are lacking or assist with practical skills. There is shame in that. Shame we have to accept. But the love is always there.

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

Below me in a kitchen. The good of the world make the world go round. Most of them don’t mention their assists. As a scoundrel and not a good person I was allowed to assist by doing some cooking in a place that does free dinners every week. That place and those like it do exist. They do help. They do care. They are everywhere.

The kind humans who help and control those places are also unsung heroes. Please try and look around your local environments go and help community places. Just do it. Do something selfless.

Whilst media narratives are in abundance of war sorrow violence sex injustice the peoples who do selfless tasks are marginalized belittled and disrespected.

Accolades and prizes are handed out to warmongers fascists and cruel leaders or corrupt philanthropists. Or fake humans who are popular or savvy on the media. Overground and underground. Seek and find.

the song below is a mantra ….do like that ….To approach those things….in that way we are a part of this world.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/you-are-a-part-of-this-world

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/stand-down-2

As prescribed by the Luck clinic to find contentment and happiness is also to fight oppression and to find causes that influence you and make you feel worthy. As us in the rich west landscape who have great quality of life and can make sense of the nonsense. It is our moral duty to be curious and find things that inspire you…

I try not to choose sides. Sometimes we have to. Never an easy choice. Because humans have allegiances and moral causes. I simply try and find as much info as I can look at the variety of arguments and actions and try and make a choice.

No one respects a coward. There is so much miss information and clueless ego’s it can seem overwhelming.

Also it is scary. People are scared.

There will be consequences for the choices we make.

A someone from a Dream time. As a lover of nature and freethinking and simple talking. I know everyone’s piss stinks. As does the shit that comes out of our asses. As does my fist when it hits your head. Or your fist when it hits mine.

Sometimes it is simply you and me and there is no hope and no heroes coming to our rescue.

As crazy horse Native American tribal leader said before going into battle “ It is a glorious day to die”

As uncle Nutts r.i.p said A London legend on his years of violence and incarceration,“ Fuck em “.

So yes don’t be disheartened life is blink of a eye a flash of a second and then you are Gone

we are always looking for more live shows we hit us up babarluck(at)gmail.com

Animal Kingdoms 7.10.25

Loss. Dealing with loss. Is not easy. Failure and the sense of not achieving the objectives one wants to is disappointing. Animals and specially Harley pictured above have a sense of empathy with humans.

How dare we ever say you acting like animals. We are way beneath how they are.

“what we teach our children in our Animal Kingdoms that might is right.”

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/animal-kingdoms-2

We talk about love in it’s variant forms. We are a musician and we compose songs about things we believe in. All our music can be heard and purchased via

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/music

The above picture is a cause which has been talked about since long before I was born. Nothing new. Level of violence has far exceeded normal violence in that region which is extreme at best where a nation sett up by the west creates havoc for the western ideology. Anyone who gets in the way will be pulverized.

It is horrific.

How do we sleep?

Not easily. Very traumatizing.

It reminds me of another cause which politicized me.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/war-fever-3

There was Nelson Mandela. It was something else that took great deal of time to change. That nation is still going under change. So much needless bloodshed for generations. Needless bloodshed.

It defeats common sense. It re writes history the shame and guilt and sorrow of humanity. If one uses “Uncle Google ” and put in the name Greta and “activist” or “environmentalist” and if one says something good about that person. Someone will say something diff written by them by someone else usually undermining the efforts that person makes. As that person states time and again it is not about her.

………Shooting myself in the foot. Me ? A musician that had this song below as the first track of a rock album, what was I thinking?

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/jesus-just-left-luton

“The first song on the album is called Jesus Just Left Luton (a town in the uk with a airport) which is allegory or a dream like idea the lyrics were written by Justin ”

as a lyricist and top notch poet I was so moved by those words written by Justin the bassist in East End Trinity our electric Rock band we wrote some music around those words and I fought against myself to have that as the first song of a album. As far as reaching a wider audience a bad move all round…….

A musical tangent.

On a brighter musical note. I made this tune with the Queen of Sakha from Siberia. I went there a few moons ago with a friend who liked my music. We did some shows. My friend got Chyskyyrai to sing a song with me a few years later and I found that song. It is on me bandcamp page. check it out.

https://babarluck.bandcamp.com/track/one-love-featuring-queen-of-sakha-chyskyyrai

Below is a link to a record label that releases music of that ilk again a great deal based on mother nature and the respect for mother earth.

https://indigenouslifeforms.bandcamp.com/album/chyskyyrai-with-tim-hodgkinson-and-ken-hyder-siberia-extreme

To finish my thread as regards to how bad I am …….

I was raised by fantasists unicorn rainbow loving dreamers who took very seriously the words and ideas expressed by someone who was told by a angel by the top bloke on how humanity should live and what it should do . A omnipotent force. Or pure fantasy or a means to control and subject rule systems to its subjects ….tra la la …..

The bloke above pictured his father worked down the pitt. A miners son. There was a time in this land where miners and mining was a industry. He knows about music. We are revisiting some songs. It is a labour of love.

Babar Luck and the Lovers is the working title of that adventure. We saw a bloke called Craig the other week near Derby (Craig is pictured above discussing how the toms were recorded during Motown and technique utilizing cables and bringing signals back to the source to get that specific sound)

If and when it is done it shall be glorious adventure. We are recording 6 songs. It is kind of pop Jazz “adjacent to Jazz”. Mr Beardsworth is part of that as is Tony the sax .

Me and mr Beardsworth hung about a bit in the recent past. Made some nice music “off the cuff stuff” There is a youtubechannel I have.

Do chk it. Do subscribe to it. Do tell your friends about it.

Above is the Borg. The link above talks about a dear friend of his that passed. Do read it. He is simply a confidante and some one who wants us to be more capable by oneself. He try’s to see the good in others.

Another chap who passed not so long ago. Above was a show about Risky a chap who tried to live his life his way. I also was present for that show on the sat. Good to see D & G & P & a few real ones and also the young ones who try and carry on his legacy. Most would not know him or why he was that legend. Risky would be OK with that. It was never just about him.

The true belief and the lifestyle was a deliberate choice.

Below is a show we are doing in Stroud uk. Come along if you can. Thanks to a new friend who introduced me to a old friend.

Do try and chk the links.

Do try and share ideas and work together with others.

To make a better world for all the children not just the select few.

till next time
