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.

Audio Cassette Players
I must be one of the last people who still has an audio cassette player. Back in the 1990s I collected and traded audio tapes of radio stations all over the country. I still have audio tapes of recording artists that were popular before CDs took over. I used to take my portable AM/FM radio cassette player/recorder when I visited other cities to tape the radio stations. I have hundreds of tapes in my collection. About twice a month I take my tape player to listen to the tapes on my way to work. This morning when I checked my tape player, there was a problem with the stop switch. The only way I could turn it off was to take out the batteries. There is always a weak point in any product and with electronics it is usually a switch. It is not worth it to get repaired so I ordered a new radio/cassette player as featured above.
