I have always enjoyed What a Wonderful World that I first heard in the movie Good Morning Vietnam in 1988. I believe that it was recorded in the 1960s but became a hit after it was shown in the film.
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.

Happy Birthday Louis Armstrong
I was listening to WBGO this morning when they announced that today is the birthday of jazz trumpeter Louis Armstrong born in 1901. One of these days I am going to have to visit the Louis Armstrong House in nearby Corona where he lived from 1943 until his death in 1971.
