Okay, that's a little a heavy on the obvious nostalgia tropes, but fuck it -- it works. I mean, I was practically in tears by the time he got to the Cousin Brucie reference. 😎
Byrd, of course, is best known for having played guitar with Joan Jett's Blackhearts for like a zillion years; he's a very interesting guy, and you can find out more about him, as well as order the new album, over at his website HERE.
Okay, I gotta go listen to the song again and sniffle.
PS: Here's some asshole whose name rhymes with Sleeve Nimels, with the aforementioned Cousin Brucie in the hallway at Sirius XM Radio in December 2016.
I was in total "I'm not worthy!" mode, as you can well imagine.

I believe Cousin Brucie is the last living DJ from the classic top forty DJs of our youth. I never ever liked his DJ shtick but he was ultra talented at it. As of a few months ago he was once again doing a evening music show on WABC-AM on the weekends. He still both sucked and shined like he always had.

Though it hasn't worked for decades I still have the transistor radio I used throughout the 1960's including during the British Invasion! I was all in on WMCA as opposed to WABC. B. Mitchell Reed & Gary Stevens were my DJ heroes. Of course Dan Ingram was the best top 40 DJ ever just on the wrong AM radio station!!!

Dan the Man. He was great. I’ll never forget when he intro’d “Ain’t That Gay” by Marvin Peculiar.😎
