A Bruncher Remembers
By Frank Branchini
 "When I was growing up I loved listening to the radio. One of the best gifts I can remember getting from my parents (other than tickets to see The Beatles at Shea - both years!!) was a transistor radio. I went everywhere with that radio stuck in my ear. On February 7, 1964 we lived in Croton-on-Hudson in the New York suburbs. I was in school when The Beatles arrived at JFK and the New York radio stations were providing round the clock coverage of the mania surrounding their arrival. I was listening throughout that weekend and primed for the Ed Sullivan Show. I have been a fan ever since.
