On December 10, at 6:30 pm, “Cousin Brucie” Morrow, member of the Radio Hall of Fame, Broadcasting & Cable's Hall of Fame, and the National Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame will speak at the National Press Club about his new book Rock & Roll…and the Beat Goes On. Mr. Morrow will speak about the book, engage in a question and answer session and then sign copies of his book. The event is free and open to all.
Copies of Rock & Roll…and the Beat Goes On will be available for purchase at the event. Proceeds from the book sales benefit the Eric Friedheim Library.
No one is better suited than Bruce Morrow, the man who introduced the Beatles at Shea Stadium in 1966, to write Rock & Roll…and the Beat Goes On. The book features more than 300 photographs, along with posters, album covers, record labels newspaper articles, magazine covers, poems, anecdotes, and quotations about everything related to the Rock & Roll generation. With a forward by Brian Wilson, a preface by Petula Clark, and an epilogue by Billy Joel, an autographed copy of Rock & Roll…and the Beat Goes On would be the perfect holiday gift for anyone who interested in music from the R & B era of the 1950’s through the punk rebellion and beyond.
“Cousin Brucie” is the only on-air personality in New York City to have a street named after him. His radio program on clear channel stations reached listeners across a wide part of the United States. He can currently be heard on SIRIUS XM Radio where he recently signed another long-term contract. He also wrote Cousin Brucie: My Life in Rock and Roll Radio and Doo Wop: The Music, the Times, the Era. Rock & Roll…and the Beat Goes On and Doo Wop were co-authored by award-winning writer and musician Rich Maloof.
