This Amendment No. 1 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D, dated December
7, 1994 (the "Schedule 13D") filed on behalf of SFX Broadcasting, Inc.  The
Schedule 13D is hereby restated in its entirety.

Item 1.   Security and Issuer

This Statement relates to the Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share
(the "Class A Common Stock") of SFX Broadcasting, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Issuer").  The Issuer's principal executive offices are
located at 150 East 58th Street, New York, New York 10155.

Item 2.   Identity and Background

(a-c, and f)  This Statement is being filed by Bedrock Asset Trust I ("BRAT")
and Nomura Holding America Inc., a Delaware corporation ("NHA").  BRAT is a
Delaware business trust established by NHA for the purpose of investing in
the securities of certain corporate issuers.  BRAT has its principal place of
business and principal office at c/o Wilmington Trust Company, Corporate
Financial Services Division, Rodney Square North, 1100 Market Street,
Wilmington, Delaware 19890.

The principal business of NHA is: (i) to act as a holding company for a wide
array of entities directly involved in the financial services industry or
involved in the provision of services to entities in the financial services
industry, and (ii) to provide funding for the operations of its subsidiaries
by, among other things, issuing commercial paper and Eurobonds.  NHA has its
principal place of business and principal office at 2 World Financial Center,
Building B, New York, New York 10281-1198.

NHA is controlled by The Nomura Securities Co., Ltd., a corporation organized
and existing under the laws of Japan ("NSC"), whose principal place of
business and principal office are located at 1-9-1, Nihonbashi, Chuo-ku,
Tokyo, 103, Japan.  The principal business of NSC is that of a
fully-diversified, global financial services company.  NSC disclaims
beneficial ownership of all securities reported herein.

(d-e)   During the last five years, neither BRAT, NHA nor NSC, (i) has been
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors) or (ii) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal
or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of  Funds or Other Consideration

The 1,071,429 shares of Class C Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the
"Class C Common Stock") (which automatically converted into Class A Common
Stock) initially acquired by BRAT, along with the other securities acquired
in the portfolio of securities purchased from The Equitable Life Assurance
Society of the United States, Equitable Deal Flow Fund, L.P. and Equitable
Variable Life Insurance Company (such parties together, the "Equitable
Investors"), were acquired with funds of approximately $78,529,027.  All such
funds were provided from working capital of NHA.  The remaining 100,700
shares of Class A Common Stock reported herein were purchased from working
capital of NHA.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

The 1,071,429 shares of Class C Common Stock initially acquired by BRAT were
acquired for investment purposes from the Equitable Investors.  The Class C
Common Stock represented part of a larger portfolio of securities acquired by
BRAT from the Equitable Investors.  Pursuant to the Issuer's Restated
Certificate of Incorporation, the Class C Common Stock automatically
converted to Class A Common Stock upon such transfer.   The remaining 100,700
shares of Class A Common Stock reported herein were purchased for investment
purposes.  The  Restated Certificate of Incorporation prohibits foreign
entities from holding, individually or collectively, more than 25% of the
total number of shares of the Issuer's capital stock outstanding.   This
restriction applies to entities controlled by foreign entities and,
therefore, may apply to BRAT.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a-b) As of the date of this Statement, the Reporting Persons own 1,172,129
shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock which is approximately 14.54% of
the outstanding shares of the Issuer's Class A Common Stock.  Pursuant to the
trust agreement governing BRAT, NHA has the power to direct the voting and
disposition of the 1,071,429 shares of Class A Common Stock initially
acquired by BRAT (upon conversion of Class C Common Stock).  NHA has sole
voting and disposition power over the 100,700 shares held in its name.

(c)  In the past 60 days, NHA made the following purchases of Class A Common
Stock of the Issuer on the NASDAQ National Market System:

Trade Date        No. of Shares Purchased       Price Per Share

11/5/96           6,700                           $40.00

11/13/96          10,000                          $39.75
                  10,000                          $38.75

11/14/96          10,000                          $35.25


(d)  None.

(e)  Not applicable.

Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Pursuant to the trust agreement governing BRAT, NHA has the power to direct
the voting and disposition of the 1,071,429 shares of Class A Common Stock
initially acquired by BRAT (upon conversion of Class C Common Stock).

BRAT, as record holder of the 1,071,429 shares of Class A Common Stock
initially acquired by BRAT (upon conversion of Class C Common Stock),
possesses certain registration rights pursuant to the Registration Rights
Agreement, dated as of August 16, 1993, among the Issuer and the Equitable
