The first Fresh Tracks set was in 2010, and they have been opportunities to bring you new tracks from the world of kirtan. This is the first of those sets, filled with chants & artists that deserve another chance to be heard. And so we have a new series — I’ll now be bringing back the Fresh Tracks sets periodically for another listen.

I’m feeling the need to retreat inside for awhile — my children will be here and Mom’s anniversary is coming up fast. It’s time to get present & be with family. I’ll be back soon with a brand new Fresh Tracks Set — it will be Fresh Tracks XIV! Then the adventure of Bhakti Fest awaits. I can’t wait. Until next time my friends, Namaste.

8/18/2010 Fresh Tracks

Putting the podcast together is a miraculous process–I’m always curious to see what Spirit has planned for the show.   This week, the perfect CD showed up right on schedule and the new songs seemed to reflect what I was thinking but didn’t have the words to say.  The set is all new music, offerings from the CDs that have arrived in my mailbox over the last several weeks.  Enjoy!   Namaste.
