Artist Profile
HE'S BACK AFTER THIRTY YEARS! Steve Bridge, a prolific song writer and singer of the historic San Francisco Sound Era, was known for his ability to enliven the hearts of his listeners. Whether appearing along with the Grateful Dead and the Jefferson Airplane at a Golden Gate Park love-in, performing impromptu on a college campus, or singing to a radio audience, he desired through his music to have a spiritualizing effect on the world.
Eventually disappointed by his inability to do so, Steve left the music scene to take shelter of a guru. He was accepted as a disciple by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, one of the greatest spiritual masters in the history of the world. Prabhupada renamed him "Sankarshan Das" and taught him the art of simultaneously spiritualizing himself and the world.
Sankarshan Das then immersed himself in practicing and teaching bhakti yoga. He discovered songs of great spiritual masters that have the potency to awaken spiritual realization in the hearts of all beings. But thinking the world not ready he kept them mostly to himself.
On a 1998 visit to the Fiji Islands Sankarshan tried taking these songs to the public. He delightfully witnessed the profound impact they had on his listeners and resolved that he must now make them available to the entire world. "From Hare Krishna With Love" is the manifestation of that resolution. Listen to it seriously and often. Share it with those you love. It has the power to transform your life.
Sankarshan hopes that those who lamented his disappearance from the music scene thirty years ago will now welcome this recording, feeling that it was well worth the wait.
