Babukishan aka Krishnendu Das Baul




Babukishan singing at BhartSeva Ashram in Haridwar India 2007 Raw

Raw the sound is not great, Babu Kishan as special guest, it was his 45th birthday. This was not a planned performance, we were traveling and stayed at the Bharatseva Ashram in Haridwar 2007.

It was my first experience in India and as you can imagine, it was out of my regular world. I was the videographer. After the Babu Kishan finished singing all the women came to me, they were thanking me? I was thinking why are you thanking me I didn't do anything. :) 






The one and only Legendary Baul Women


Very rare recording of the legendary Manju Dasi Baul, she was Babukishan's mother and the very first Baul women to travel outside of India. 

Manju Dasi preformed at all the (prestigious) concerts halls around the world including The Royal Albert Hall and Carnagie Hall, in front of thousands of people. 

She is legendary, her story is legendary, she is the first and only authentic Women Baul to travel worldwide for more than 50 years she was side by side with her husband the Legendary Purna Das Baul.  

Baul History was complete decades ago, now all are making up stories, saying they are Legendary, The legendary Baul is gone. Baul is extinct thanks to all the fakes who have watered down and reduced Baul to a circus show. They copy everything from this lineage, copy Nabani Das Bauls Legendary style of dance Ekatar Baya Nupoor,  his songs taking off his name as poet, culturally Appropriating his poetry putting other poets names on, and on top of it all saying Bauls do not care who the poets are.

Every Baul Knows who the poets are?

Babu Kishan has preserved this one and only lineage, the only Pioneers of Baul taking Baul from the villages of Birbhum to the rest of India and then to the world before there was "fake famous" on the internet.

Baul is already preserved decades ago!
Manju Dasi beside Purna Das Paul on one side, The (now) President of India on the other side (Pranab Mukerjee).

Manju Das Baul was the first person to record Lalon Fakir songs, she was always interested in preserving Lalon Fakir songs as she was from Bangladesh when it was part of India. 

A LINEAGE Baul Is be brilliant energetic, genius  as they are from the Oral Sanskrit tradition of Vaishnavism in Bengal. 

Manju Dasi is from the one and only Lineage of Baul, the roots of Baul, she was best friends with Indira Gandhi and traveled all of India playing on the (most prestigious, biggest stadiums and stages in India in front of millions of people). She was a Classically trained Indian singer. If not for her no one would know what Paul is in this world. She started traveling back in the 1960's. 

Manju Dasi is the first women Baul to travel outside of India. She is from a Lineage of Women Bauls who were Guru's to other women. Brajabal Dasi, Radharani Dasi, and many others who were Legends in Birbhum Bengal. 
Manju Dasi with Indira Gandhi, they were friends.
