Bruce Slutsky was born in New York City in 1949. I retired six years ago after working as a Science/Engineering Librarian at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark for 25 years. I was married to Karen until she passed away in February 2021. I have a son Lee who is now 35 years old. I am very much interested in the popular music of the 1960s, especially Bob Dylan and the Beatles. I am interested in rock and roll radio. I am an enthusiastic fan of the New York Mets.

I'm Not There Soundtrack CD
Yesterday I worked the late shift at the No Joke Is True place in beautiful downtown Newark. Since I did not have to arrive until 1 PM I had time to stop at Borders just outside of Penn Station on 33rd Street. I bought the greatly anticipated (for me at least) the soundtrack CD for I'm Not There which will play at the Film Forum starting on November 21. The 2 CD set includes covers of Bob Dylan songs that will be heard in the film. Generally I arrive home at 6 and it is a ritual in the Slutsky household for Lee to pick a CD to be played from 6:15 PM until 7:00 when Jeopardy comes on. So today, we had time to listen to the first 7 cuts on the first of 2 CDs. I really enjoyed Tombstone Blues by Richie Havens who in the past has done a fine job covering Dylan.
