Legendary radio personality Bruce Morrow, aka Cousin Brucie, returns to WABC-AM/New York, the station where he first introduced fans to The Beatles, Motown, 60s soul, surf music and more. "Cousin Brucie's Saturday Night Rock & Roll Party" will return to the airwaves at the station from 6-9pm ET every Saturday night, beginning September 5. He'll also be heard live on sister WLIR-FM in Long Island. Additionally, the debut show will be replayed on Labor Day Monday, September 7, from 12-3pm ET.

"Cousins, this is literally one of the most exciting projects of my life," said Morrow. "It completes a circle... a career circle. It all started at WABC, and here we are all these years later, and the magic is still here. And what magic we're going to make."

"Brucie is a national treasure and talent. Listeners everywhere can now hear this radio icon and their favorite music from the early days of rock and roll on our radio stations and streaming on our digital platforms," commented Red Apple Media's John Catsimatidis. "Red Apple Media is about bringing the best in information and entertainment to New York and all of America however they want to listen... on their phone, radio, smart speaker or computer."

"It's an honor to be part of these two legendary brands coming together and to welcome Cousin Brucie home to 77WABC," added Red Apple Media and WABC President Chad Lopez.

"We're excited to bring Music Radio back to 77WABC every Saturday night with Cousin Brucie, everyone across America can stream him and us at WABCRadio.com," stated Red Apple Media and WABC Senior VP/Programming Dave LaBrozzi.

Most recently, Cousin Brucie was heard by paid subscribers on SiriusXM, where he has hosted his Wednesday and Saturday night programs since 2005.
