Bert DEIVERT - Takin´  Sam´s  Advice 2007

Blues

This acoustic music cd features lots of blues mandolin, resonator guitars, slide guitar, fiddle, and guest appearances by other blues friends like Tom Paley, Peter Case, Brian Kramer, Janne Zander and Papa Dan. This is a cd with varied types of songs from the delta and country blues traditions, featuring Bert's take on some of his 1920's-1940's blues favorites. It is dedicated to Son House, Sam Chatmon, and Yank Rachell.

Bert Deivert is forging new ground with his interpretations of vintage blues material on mandolin and guitar.
His main influences for this album are Sam Chatmon, Son House, and Yank Rachell.
In 1966 Bert saw Son House on public television and was so amazed by what he saw that he immediately broke a wine bottle and made his own bottleneck for playing slide guitar. He has been hooked on the blues and Son House ever since. His road to the blues began then and crystallized on the streets of San Francisco in 1973-74 where he honed his skills, gained experience, and held audiences with his particular music mojo. Peter Case was the first of many musical friends that Bert was to play with or record with over the years. Bert’s musical home base soon switched to Sweden where he continued meeting people and hooked up with folks like blues artist Eric Bibb, rockabilly queen Wanda Jackson, old timey legend Tom Paley, and Irish piper and singer Christy O'Leary. Why he even had a stint playing charango in Peru with a street band there for a couple of months!
He still lives in Sweden and tours wherever the blues take him...
