Bert and I by Robert Bryan
The iconic Bert and I stories were first created by Yale University students Marshall Dodge and Robert Bryan in the late 1950s and performed around campus. The two amateur storytellers soon recorded a short ten-inch album of eleven stories for friends and family, but ultimately pressed just a few hundred. However, growing popularity prompted them in 1958 to record and release the seminal commercial album of New England humor and storytelling-Bert and I . And Other Stories From Down East. More than fifty years later, their milestone album has been digitally remastered for this special CD edition, which also includes three bonus stories taken from the private ten-incher that preceded the first commercial record. These three stories did not appear on the commercial album or were changed. Eventually, Dodge and Bryan recorded three more Bert and I albums together. They remain the godfathers of Down East humor.
An Episcopal minister and bush pilot, Robert Bryan founded the Quebec-Labrador Foundation, which for going on fifty years has conducted programs in education, community service, and environmental resource management in northern Maine and eastern Canada. Bryan is also the co-creator (with Marshall Dodge) of the iconic Maine comedy and storytelling act Bert and I. The combined Bert and I recordings have sold well over one million copies. Robert Bryan lives in Quebec and Ipswich, Massachusetts.
