Bruce's Journal

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.

Dedications to Lee on the Radio

Lee actually has been into oldies since the day he was born. Bob Shannon announced his birth on the air by playing "What a Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong. When Lee was 7 years old Bob played Crying in the Chapel by Elvis Presley for Lee. His Bar Mitzvah was announced by Harry Harrison on WCBS-FM. A few weeks ago stated in this journal Cousin Brucie played I Walk the Line by Johnny Cash. Just tonight Cool Bobby B played Mister Lee by the Bobbettes for him.

I will be listening to Sounds of the Sixties on Sunday March 24 to hear if Brian Matthew plays It Ain't Me Babe by Johnny Cash for Lee. Brian says that the show gets many requests, so I hope he picks mine.
