ABRAHAM'S CHILDREN
A NEW CHAPTER |
"Mrs. Norton once referred
to children as Fragile beginnings of mighty end." Avenue
of America's Gary Salter is now preparing his Abraham's Children
for a mighty beginning rather than "mighty end." Their
release on the G.A.S. label, "Goodbye Farewell", was
slow to start but with the combined efforts of manager Jack Morrow
and A&R man Paul Gross, they have now had the single listed
on almost seventy stations across Canada - a rarity, so early
on release. (more) |

Juliana was born
into an entertainment family. Her father is pop rocker Jimi Bertucci
who splashed onto the music scene...(more) |
|
My favorite song of theirs was
"Gypsy". I also like "Goodbye farewell".
It was played a lot growing up in Montreal in the 70s. Another
CDN classic song from a time far away. Todays music TOTALLY SUCKS
compared to back then.
So many of these songs are so hard to find on CD, stuff from
Abraham's Children, Edward Bear, Fludd, Bearfoot, Copperpenny,
Ken Tobias and others. |

Claire Cascone - I love what you have written here, Jimi. Your
recollections of those days ring very true for me as well. Every
Italian father thought they made the best wine. It was WAY better
than any of his compari', neighbours, uncles or cousins.
The food...my goodness. The aroma of Sunday sauce, peppers frying,
brodo simmering (probably made from your "pet" chicken),
homemade sausages hanging in the cantina. All of it remains forever
embedded in our hearts, doesn't it?
By the way, I hated my father's wine too. Probably because we
were almost forced to have some at every meal to "keep us
strong and our blood healthy". Yeah, well...I finally took
them up on it one day when I took a bottle to a Central Commerce
school dance. Needless to say, that was it for me. No more vino
for this girl for years after that. Toronto, Canada |
Hi I never know what to
say when I leave a message. Ok here goes. I met you in Detroit
when you were performing with your band Abraham.s Children you
had these wild outfits on. You signed amy t-shirt and gave me
a kiss on the cheek. Thanks for being so nice. Whitney D. Detroit |
Hi Jimi, "In grade 8 I
went to a high school concert to see a band called
Abraham's Children. I stayed behind and had the band sign the
back of my new
shearling jacket. I was only 13 or 12 not sure, and my Father
was waiting. When
everyone had left, and I was was still inside...he came in for
me.*eeks*I guess the
bands truck that said 'Lock up your daughters The Children are
coming' tipped him
off. Many many years later...40 ish...I found the lead singer
here! Love ya Jimi
Bertucci :) So nice to keep up with the past, where things had
brought you musical
joy." Brenda M
Thank you
so much Brenda...it was people and fans like you that made us
feel we were doing the right thing. Jimi Bertucci |

One
of my favorite Canadian bands of the early 70s, only saw them
live once but had all of their music only two albums if I remember
correctly. When bands had organs and the flute was popular. |
Virginia Novak - Your music is touching and so real...proud
of you. Toronto Canada |
Just bumming around
on you tube and searched for Abrahams Children and lo & behold
there they were. To me this was an awesome find, as I saw this
band numerous times in the early 70's. A freind of mine at the
time ( Ted Kalis ) booked bands into area hotels in the St. Catharines
area and these guy's played at the Queensway hotel in a bar called
the Purple Onion Room. Ted called me and said ,Gord I've just
booked this band you have to see. I was amazed how good these
guy's were and bought their album and played it forever until
in one move I lost it. I was eccstatic to find they have a CD
out that I can purchase as I always wondered what happened to
them, I had heard they had gone to California and that was that!!
Great news from a fan forever,met them back then and thought
they were a great bunch of guys. PS if you have contact with
the band ask them if they remember Ted and the Purple Onion Room

Dear
Jimi, I have been a longtime fan of yours and have
followed your career ever since your early days with the Canadian
band "Abraham's Children". You are a very talented
songwriter and singer and I love listening and singing along
to your songs . They are beautifully written and full of emotion
. We also happen to have something in common. I am Canadian too!
When do you plan on touring in Canada again. I want to make sure
I don't miss any of your shows. Your amazing music has had a
big impact on my life and I would like to take this opportunity
to "Thank You" for sharing it with the world! Love,

I was on the net the other day with my son we
were looking at bands from the 70's, as a thought I asked him
to see if you had a website .There you were. As I read through
the pages the memories began to flow, so Iam writing to share
a memory with you . It was 1973 - 1974 I was a young teenager
living on manitoulin Island in Northern Ontario. It was our spring
dance at Manitoulin Secondary School in west bay .The band played
that night and were awesome. Come the end of the night as you
were all packing up to leave you had no idea how to get from
west bay to little current . as my friend and I were going to
little current anyway we offered to take you were you needed
to go. We hopped in your station wagon ( I think it was a station
wagon) and we road with you to little current. You guys droped
us off a! nd headed on your way. To this day I remember that
night. I how great you guys were to 2 country girls and how giddy
we were for weeks afterwords. I say you again once more (that
same year I think around New Years) at the Gasworks in toronto.
That was the last time. I am glad that I could shared this memory
with you . Thanks for the memory. carol finch |

Hi,I
just recently came across the website of Abraham's Children,
oh the memories came flooding back to 1974 when they played at
our school Queen Elizabeth Composite High in Edmonton, my girlfriends
and I had the opportunity to meet and spend sometime with them.
It was a wonderful day and one that won't be forgotten. I received
at the time their drum cover signed by all four.(Jimi, Brian,
Ron, Bob) One of them had the nickname SquirrIey, I think it
was Brian. I kept the drum cover around for years until my parents
decided that it neeed to go once I left home. After touring the
website, I was sadden to hear about Brian, I still remember his
sense of humor and how the four of them could be the best of
friends one minute and angry the next and it was Brian who always
turned things around. When we the girls get together and reminisce
about old times, this is alway brought up, I wonder what happened
to Abraham's Children and now I can share the website with them.
This has been a great afternoon touring the website and catching
up on Abraham's Children. Carol Fort McMurray, AB Joined The Fan Factory |
Hi Guys
(AC) I know you won't remember, but I met you in Charlottetown,
PE in 1972. You played at the Confederation Centre. One of the
first radio interviews I did. I was 17 at the time . Alot older
now no wiser, still rocking & rollin on the radio. I'm having
a hard time finding the hits from the 1970's. I host the Saturday
Morning Retro Rewind on OCEAN100, live every weekend, featuring
the 70's at 7. I played all your hits when they were hits. If
its possible, I'm looking for a CD with all of the hits on it.
With your permission, I would like to add them to my 70's Canadian
gold rotation. Ron Gillespie Production Manager CHTN-Ocean100

I'll share it on my wall if you like. The 12 bar blues scaling

My parent's first new car was a
73 Buick station wagon. I remember as a 13 year old camping in
it the first night we had it. With the AM dial on CFCY, Jimi
was interviewed about Abraham's Children playing in Abraham's
Village here on PEI! They played "Thank You" after
the interview. That song stuck to me like glue all these years!
I found the song again last week. Not having heard it for 35
years, I enjoyed the memory trip back in that new 73 Buick Century!

Great job Jimi! I've been listening

I really like the build up from the intro... very upbeat, clean

I think the guitar riffs add an Italian sound/touch which I really,
really like... horns sound great too.

Hey Vincenzo and Colleen - great
video - great band - awesome lead singer! Enjoyed them a lot
- what a pretty boy in 1982! Look a lot more like a Rod Steward
now with "through the eyes..." Compliment intended
there! I heard you're back in town again Jimi - would love to
sit down with the two of you and just hear what's new with all
the travel and new condos and future plans. Praying for you both.
Let me know if you're up for getting together, maybe a breakfast
or lunch sometime - my treat. cell# Pastor Dave - California

The multi-dimensional persona
of you Mr. Bertucci is alluring, intreguing and the best high
I have experienced in some time. Your poetry is >entrapping
and frustrating as it immediately conjures motion to want to

of quandry and >hope......that you are nurtured not tortured...........

Hiya, Marisa :-) Just thought I'd lethca know AC "Time"
CD arrived today . . .thanks a million!! I couldn't be happier with the CD. You were right
on the mark . . . the plastic case is very cool and reflects
the look of the album to a "T". I'm happier to have
a reissue of the "original" with the artwork and stuff
instead of simply having the tunes on a Best Of. It's just like
my LP copy of Time. It will have an honoured and permanet place
in my CanCon CD collection :-) Thanks again . . . and have a
great weekend!! Scott . Joined

I was at Boyd Park and saw you guys
perform. It was great that you and Marisa donated $15,000.00
to the Abruzzo earthquake. Nice that you are giving back. R.

Very impressive! You know, all this
time, especially being here in Malaysia, I felt my music collection
wasn't complete (or even my soul) without having the song "Gypsy'.
It's such a haunting beautiful piece that I almost melted just
hearing the clip. Can't wait to get my hands on the CD. Was one
of my all-time faves growing up and it still is. Allan - Malaysia Joined The Fan Factory |

Hi there, - What was the original
name of the band? And why can you not find their song Hot Love
(In the Summertime) anywhere? Haven't heard it in decades but
remember it had a cool mood. Is there a download of it somewhere.
Thanks. Jon Boyd Joined

of the time in which we live, a translation of the future, and

BUDDAH RECORDS - Was the ultimate bubblegum label . It
was the home to 1910 Fruit Gum Company, Neil Sedaka , Paul Anka,
Abraham's Children, Ohio Express , Shadows of Knight, David Cassidy,
and an endless list of others. The founding member of Buddah
was a visionary man named Neil Bogart. Abraham's Children first
met Neil, when he was invited to attend a showcase of the band,
in Toronto, Canada. GAS Records , the Children's Canadian label
, had set up this elaborate concert showcase in the premier hotel,
Inn On The Park , Neil was flown in with around 15 other major
US labels. , |

THE
BLOG |
Encountering the
blog sites or forums, as they are usually called, was something
I discovered accidentally. I was reading a news article online
one day. I can't remember what paper it was, or if it even was
a newspaper for that matter. When I reached the end of the story,
there was a box on the page that allowed one to express his or
her opinion about the article. I noticed that others had left
comments and I proceeded to read them. I found many of them to
be well written and valid concerning the issue presented in the
article...(order
the book)
