Friends, fans and family members observed the fourth death anniversary of Bangladesh's iconic rock superstar, singer, guitarist, composer, and music director Ayub Bachchu on Tuesday.

"We all miss and love you very much Sollo," said Ahnaf Tazwar Ayub, son of the legendary Rockstar, in a social media post.

 

He posted a guitar cover of 'Nirobe'-- one of Bachchu's popular songs--with flamboyant guitar riffs on LRB's official Facebook page and his personal profile.

The legendary frontman of one of the most well-known Bangladeshi rock bands 'Love Runs Blind' died of cardiac arrest on October 18 in 2018 at his home in the capital's Moghbazar. He was 56.

The band is popularly known as LRB.

Fairuz Saffra Ayub, daughter of the rock legend, posted an emotional write-up on her profile, remembering his dearest father.

"Compassionate, caring, humble, grounded, emotional and an incredibly hard-working being is how I have always known him to be," she wrote.

"Immaculate skills with his art, endless wisdom about life, and his way of looking at things differently is what got him to where he was in his life," she added.

Among the events, several of the Ayub Bachchu and LRB fan clubs organised special prayer sessions and discussions across the country, marking the anniversary of his demise.

Bacchu was born at Patiya at Khorna union in Chattogram on August 16, 1962. He started his band LRB in his hometown, Chattogram, in 1991.

Before that, Bachchu began his career as a musician with the band 'Golden Boys' (renamed later as 'Ugly Boys'), which he co-founded with his childhood friend and renowned Bangladeshi singer Kumar Bishwajit.

He also played an important role in other well-known Bangladeshi bands including 'Feelings' and 'Souls'. During his time with 'Feelings', he played with another contemporary rock icon of Bangladesh - James.

With Bachchu being the frontman of LRB, the band performed more than thousands of concerts at home (500+ open-air & 2000+ indoor) and abroad. They went on their first international tour in the US and they played in seven states.

In his lifetime, Bachchu has created a total of 16 solo albums, a full-fledged studio-turned-production house named 'AB Kitchen', numerous super hit playbacks such as ''Ammajaan'', ''Sagorika", "Ononto Prem", "Ami to preme porini" and many other scores in Bangladeshi commercial movies.

"Rupali Guitar," "Cholo Bodle Jai," "Ekhon Onek Raat," "Koshto", ''Shei Tumi Keno Eto Ochena Hole," ''Ferari Ei Monta Amar," ''Ekdin Ghum Bhanga Shohore,'' ''Hashte Dekho Gaite Dekho'' are some of his most iconic tracks with his beloved LRB.
