It was also home to many legendary New York DJs like 'Cousin Brucie' Morrow, Don K. Reed, and Bill Brown.

When signing into Siruis this morning to listen at work I saw this...Thought you might like to know...

One of NYC’s most legendary—and beloved—radio personalities is coming to SIRIUS.

Bruce Morrow, aka “Cousin Brucie,” will debut on SIRIUS during the July 4th weekend with a special broadcast from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland.

The Brooklyn-born Morrow has been a NYC radio institution for more than 40 years, and has remained one of its most popular personalities. He’s spun the hits on NYC radio stations WINS, WABC-AM and, until June 3, WCBS-FM. Morrow has been inducted into the National Association of Broadcasters’ Radio Hall of Fame, the Broadcasting & Cable Hall of Fame, the Radio Hall of Fame (Chicago) and was honored for his on-air work by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum.

“This is one of the most exciting events of my career,” said Morrow. “I feel like I’m riding a rocket ship—or should I say ‘satellite’? I now have the opportunity with SIRIUS to reach the national audience I’ve always wanted to communicate with. Here comes the music!”

Following the July 4th event at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Morrow will host three regularly scheduled programs each week and numerous daily features from SIRIUS’ NYC national broadcast studios.
