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.

Bob Dylan Announcing Shadows in the Night to Be Released February 3, 2015

Back in May I remarked in this journal that a new Bob Dylan Cd will be released called Shadows in the Night. The details were just announced today. This will be a CD of Frank Sinatra covers to be released on February 3, 2015. I wish it would be a CD of songs written by Dylan, but it is unique for him to sing Frank Sinatra songs. 2015 will mark the 100th anniversary of Sinatra's birth.

Some pompous radio personality who now is heard on WOR loves Sinatra, but hates Dylan. Mr. Pompous made it his business to trash Dylan when he was heard on WABC a few years ago.
