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.

Gene Clark - The Byrd Who Flew Alone

Gene Clark has certainly appeared in Bruce's Journal before as I have been a fan of his as a member of the Byrds and as a solo artist since the 1960s. I got hold of the video called The Byrd Who Flew Alone. It was a good biography of him showing how his career developed before, after, and during his time with The Byrds. It is really a shame that he never got the recognition that he deserved. I checked my collection and found one record and two CDs with him as a solo artist. After watching the video, I bought another CD of his playing with the Gosdin Brothers.
