Jim Kane's Bristol (CT) Rock 'N Roll

Jim Kane is Bristol's Music Man. A product of Bristol Eastern HS (class of 1964), Jim was a basketball/baseball star (I played both against him as a St. Anthony's HS Crusader and with him on the 1962 Bristol American Legion CT state championship baseball team)and music aficionado. His love of that era's music is legendary and fiercely loyal (his comment in the Tower 100 guestbook leaves no doubt about where he stands). He is a musician who has played in rock 'n roll bands and has produced a number of concerts, forging friendships with many of the rock greats.

Now living in Port St. Lucie, FL, Jim, in partnership with Heffernan-Roy Records, has produced a series of 50's/60's/70's compilation CDs that feature Jim as the DJ weaving Bristol banter between cuts (yours truly is mentioned several times, but do not let that detract from the quality of the product).
