Inside The Classic 1st Brooklyn Bridge Album with Jimmy Rosica & Joe Ruvio on the LIMEHOF Podcast
On this episode of the Long Island Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame Podcast, host Tom Needham sits down with Brooklyn Bridge inductees Jimmy Rosica and Joe Ruvio for a rare, song-by-song look back at the group’s landmark debut album. Together, they revisit the creation of classics like “Blessed Is the Rain,” “Welcome Me Love,” “Which Way to Nowhere,” “The Worst That Could Happen,” “Piece of My Heart,” and more.
Rosica and Ruvio share vivid memories of working alongside music greats Johnny Maestro and Jimmy Webb, reflecting on the group’s signature blend of harmony vocals and full horn arrangements that brought them national acclaim.
Recorded during a packed live event at the Hall of Fame, the episode captures the energy of a room full of fans who later stayed to meet the band members and take photos. It’s an intimate celebration of a breakthrough album that helped define an era of New York soul-pop.
