Kockar bez sreće

Kockar bez sreće (Serbian Cyrillic: Коцкар без среће, lit. "Gambler without luck") is the sixth studio album by Serb war singer Baja Mali Knindža, released in late 1993 by SuperTon. It was released along side "Rat i mir" and would be the first time Baja is accompanied by Orkestar Genijalci. The album was a switch up from Baja's previous work as it did not contain any patriotic songs.

Release

Kockar bez sreće was released in late 1993 together with Rat i mir. Unlike his previous albums, Kockar bez sreće does not contain any patriotic material but rather songs similar to non-war albums. As the title suggests the album contains songs about gambling, as well as love.

Many of the songs originated at the start of Baja's career in the 80s. Nemoj me lagati mila is a prime example of this, as it was performed by Baja as early as 1989 in the Prvi Glas Livna competition.

A year later in 1994, the Rat i mir VHS was made and included most of the songs as music videos. Around the same time, Kockar bez sreće would also receive a release in Australia by Video Novosti.

The album was first uploaded to YouTube and other streaming services by SuperTon in 2015 with the improper track listing and republished in 2020 with it corrected.
