Babu Kishan has known Shaan and his sister Sagarika before they even started in Indian Cinema. Kishan was the first to record Shaan's Bengali and Devotional songs.
 Babu Kishan meeting the famed Indian (Bengali) Indian Cinema Vocalist Arijit Singh yesterday before the concert last night in Vancouver. Babu knew all the Bengali Musicians and hung out all afternoon at the sound check, then went to the concert. He knew the musicians and their parents were his musician in Mumbai and Bengal. They all knew Babu Kishan and definitely heard of him even if they never met personally.

Babu Kishan’s then known as Krishnendu Das creation, his lyrics, music composition and he produced for a popular Bengali drama/ theatre #Aaposh in the 1970's at a very young age. Babu Kishan was 13 years old and he played the Harmonium in this music. Babu Kishan @ the #World’s biggest #MusicClub #Fusion #collaboration #Russian #American & #Indian!! #SpiritualAspect: #Knittingfactory & #Studio54 #Manhattan #NewYorkCity 2004            I have been Composing, writing and producing all Baul Music from 70’s, I have created a huge Baul Archive and Preserved Baul from the day I was born in 1962 !! I made the road for all Bauls today, I made it easier for new comers to have a platform #Bauls to the #World!!  I Still remember how #ShantidevGhosh the right hand of #RabindranathTagore used to degrade 'Sanatan Das Baul' and other Bauls, he only wanted only the Lineage Bauls, because he knew #NabaniDasBaul my grandfather, and if you ever knew Nabani and this lineage and the stories you would know that everybody followed Nabani Das Khyapa Baul and the Bauls in this lineage before him. #socialmedia #news #indianheritage #baulhistory #theqint #bengal#calcutta #rabindranathtagore #ndtv #timesofkolkata #bobdylan#allenginsberg #purnadasbaul #babukishan #shantiniketan #anandbazar#patrika #aajkal #hindunewspaper #kolkata #india #zeenews #googlenews#amazon #google #birbhum #baul #historicalbaul #getitstraight  I am the one who gave a space & chance to have a seat with #BaulSamratPurnaDasBaul on the stage at Mela's especially Pous and Joy Dev Mela, so that the struggling Bauls can also go in a flow and have a chance, including #SanatanBaul who was just copycat of my Grandfather in dance and copycat of Purna Das in dress, no matter whatever story you make. I knew Sanatana Das Baul and his sons and brought Sanatan to 'All India Radio' and the #RadioStation and encouraged him to record, but it was not successful the record company did not like his voice, he went on my reference. He wanted my help and I tried to help him. I supported #pabandasbaul who became a good folk singer and Paban’s brother & others like #Subol, #Gour, I have watched what is going on and now am ready to tell the truth of how all came about, and will qualify all these stories and people in my new book to be released in 2018. I have always been the in a mainstream supporter for #Bauls, I started #Baulmela called 'Gopal Nagar' a huge successful festival. I always worked behind the scenes even in Bollywood with Amitabh Bachchan. I gave the New Baul singers a platform to sing with as much respect, clothes, money for decades. And I made a easier way to sing a song in #Guru’s name, Made so many to sit in the first row and helped compose music and recorded #BhavaPagla and #ManoharKhyapa poetry, which those where their first popular songs for them. Babu used to spend so much time with Monahar Khyapa, he loved Babu Kishan. He always stayed at Babu Kishan's home when he came to Calcutta. Babu always gave him a really good place to stay, he had a problem with his leg so Babu set up a place on the first floor, and he remembers always giving him extra food and milk... Babu introduced Carol Solomon, Usha Harding, Charles Cappwell to Monar Khepa to #BabaPagala another poet who Babu did the same for. Babu Kishan introduced all outsiders to Baul around the world. #MonarKhepa was a poet and part of our family, he used to be with us all the time. I knew #MonarKhepa he was part of our family and had an ashram in JoyDev and most of the Bauls worked for him to have free food. #MonarKhepa always asked me to compose music to his lyrics and get to get my #purnadasbaul to sing. #MonarKhepa was not a Baul, he was poet, I know his story more than anybody. Babu Kishan introduced Carol Solomon to Monar Khepa, he introduced her to everyone. Babu was her translator for Bengali in India and America. Baul was too difficult for her and she changed the line and made Baul 'Bangladesh Baul' which never existed before. The real story to come in Babu’s book. Nitai Khepa and Sanatana Das Baul copied 'Nabani Das Baul' or should I say tried to, Nabani was a Mystic Genuis you can not copy Baul essence. Santana Das Baul used to talk behind Babu's back because Babu used to wear jeans and when Babu confronted him he would say I am just kidding. Babu Kishan knows all these new Bauls from a very young age and he will tell all in his new Book. He tried to help Sanatan Das Baul so many times. If there is one thing Babu does not like it is dishonesty his own family could not train him to be untruthful. When the late Carol Solomon took that picture of 'Nitai Khepa' who do you think Carol Solomon was with, she was with Babu Kishan? He introduced her to all. Babu knew all these people personally Carol was his friend for decades, she too would stay at Babu Kishan's home and Babu would book them in the tourist lodge in Shantiniketan and when they were gone for a few days he found them in really bad shape. Too long of story to tell here but will be told in the book. All Baul history now, real original #Bauls are gone and will go completely end after me because all the information is with Babu Kishan. Rabindranath Tagore gave the title (Khepa) Khyapa Baul to Nabani Das Baul and used Khyapa Baul in all of his poetry and that Khepa Baul is only Nabani Das Khyapa Baul. Now Bauls are only tourist attractions and just singers, at least please try to sing on a track and note rather than just screaming, dancing like plastic, we did a hard work dear, at least respect the #Pioneers.. still no #Bauls can even #reach or #dream as to #PurnaDasBaul or #RabindranathTagore’s inspiration #NabaniDasKhyapaBaul this all just real history. #Produced #Composed & some written the original Babu Kishan poetry on these albums by #MusicLegend: #BabuKishan aka #KrishnenduDas  Monohar Khepa a poet who Babu Kishan knew very well, he used to stay at their house all the time, Babu had a special place for him to stay because it was too difficult to climb the stairs. Monohar Khepa always wanted Babu to compose music for his poetry and to try to get his dad to sing the poetry. He was a poet not a Baul, he followed this lineage of Baul. Babu's dad Purna Das Baul claims in his book that Monhar Khepa was his Guru. In many ways everybody a Baul meet can be our Guru, Babu was very fond of Monahar Khepa and knew him well and liked him well, however, he never considered him a Baul Guru in the lineage of Baul Guru's he considered him a great poet.  Bhava (Bhaba) Pagla beside Purna Das Baul, he often stayed at Babu Kishan house and never claimed to be a Baul, he was a poet and a regular BABA not a Baul, he followed Baul, who Babu Kishan composed music for.   Babu Kishan listed on "The Bands, 'page Related Artists. For those that do not know The Band is Bob Dylan's original Band, it included Robbie Robertson, Garth Hudson, Levon Helm and others. Babu used to jam with them all the time and he performed about 40 concerts around America with 'Bob Dylan and The Band' in the mid 1980's where he sang the poetry Allen Ginsberg wrote for Babu Kishan in honour of Babu's grandfather, Nabani Das Khyapa Baul who Allen Ginsberg first met in 1962 in Birbhum. http://theband.hiof.no/related/index.html Baul already has been 'archived and preserved', it was preserved decades ago by Babu Kishan. This lineage of Baul is the only Lineage of Baul, all Bauls follow this lineage, they sing their songs, dress like them and follow them around the world. It should be know that the song (poetry) & tune for #KichhuDinMoneMone is a song from this lineage, it is the Poetry of Nabani Das Khyapa Baul. It was recorded first by Purna Das Baul at one of India's first record companies Hindustan Records under Pankaj Mallick and Rai Chand Boral. RabindraNath Tagore started the first Baul archive all based on Nabani Das Khyapa Baul and Babu Kishan is the only Baul to 'Preserve and ARCHIVE' Baul in a big way and that was done decades ago. #culturalappropriation #kichhudinmone This is the only Das Baul and Dasi lineage, it has been archived decades ago, be careful who you donate to because there are some trying to ride on the coat tails of this lineage, taking their songs and deleting their names adding their own names and made up lineage?
