Brings back a lot of old memories of Seeing David Bromberg in the 1970's on Long Island.
His incredible journey spans five-and-a-half decades, and includes but is not limited to adventures with Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jerry Garcia, and music and life lessons from seminal blues guitarist Reverend Gary Davis, who claimed the young Bromberg as a son. A musicians musician, Brombergs mastery of several stringed instruments (guitar, fiddle, Dobro, mandolin), and multiple styles is legendary, leading Dr. John to declare him an American icon. In producing John Hartfords hugely influential Aereo-Plain LP, Bromberg even co-invented a genre: Newgrass.
Add in a period of self-imposed exile from his passion (1980-2002), during which he became a renowned violin expert, and Wilmington, Delawares cultural ambassador; top that off with a triumphant return to music-making, and you have an amazing tale leading back to one place: the blues.
