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.

Mr. Tambourine Man - Gene Clark

The members of the original Byrds are:

Roger McGuinn
Gene Clark
Mike Clarke
Chris Hillman
David Crosby

The group had many personnel changes over the years. The members also recorded as soloists. Roger McGuinn was the lead singer on the hit version of Mr. Tambourine Man in 1965. I have a Gene Clark CD where he sang the Dylan classic. The video below is from the TV show Solid Gold seen in the 1980s. Facebook friends and readers of Bruce's Journal can see it at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HXa3wfzWKQ . I am not able to post the video.
