The Complete Bert & I Robert Bryan

Sixty years ago, Marshall Dodge and Robert Bryan created Bert and I while studying at Yale in order to entertain their classmates. 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, called Bert and I . . . And Other Stories from Down East. Sixty years later, the work of Dodge and Bryan epitomizes Maine humor and has inspired countless humorists. The original album is included in this CD set, along with More Bert and I, The Return of Bert and I, Bert and I Stem Inflation, Bert and I . . . On Stage, and Maine Pot-Hellion. This is the ultimate collection for Bert and I fans and lovers of classic regional humor.
