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.

Eliot Rivera and His New York Boogaloo Orchestra
There are more than books at public libraries. Today we walked over to the Flushing branch of the Queens Borough Public Library to see a performance of Eliot Rivera and his New York Boogaloo Orchestra. This group played an eclectic mix of salsa, boogaloo and boleros in English and Spanish. I even found a Youtube video of one of their performances.
Thank you Bruce. I really appreciate your comments. Although I enjoyed leading this band I had to disband after 3 years due to the NYC club's refusal to pay musicians the et ir worth. At the present time I decided to do the one band. I perform pop.doo wop disco and old school salsa.
