San Francisco UPCOMING BROADCASTS: KQED Life: Mon, Nov 10, 2014 -- 9:00pm KQED Life: Tue, Nov 11, 2014 -- 3:00am Comcast 189 & Digital 54.3 Duration: 56:25 STEREO TVG This program chronicles the life of enigmatic musical figure David Bromberg. In 1980, at the height of his career, Bromberg stopped performing - citing burnout from years of recording and touring - and turned to violin-making and collecting. The documentary takes an in-depth look at this groundbreaking, genre-bending guitarist, chronicling his rise to fame, his collaborations with Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jerry Garcia and Neil Young, and his influence on a generation of musicians. This rich and largely untold story unfolds through intimate interviews with Bromberg, archival photographs and footage, music recordings (including never-before-released cuts), and recollections from his contemporaries and family. Directed and Produced by: Beth Toni Kruvant, Edited by: Anand Kamalakar, Executive Producer: Roger Kruvant, Associate Producer: Helen Yum, Director of Photography: Bill Donald.
