Dick Clark, the music industry maverick, longtime TV host and powerhouse producer who changed the way we listened to pop music with American Bandstand, and whose trademark Rockin’ Eve became a fixture of New Year’s celebrations, died today at the age of 82.

**May the worlds oldest living teenager rest in peace. ** 👍
 
Eternal rest grant unto Dick Clark, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen.

Another memory from my baby-boomer childhood now gone…this is making me feel REALLY OLD…

Dick Clark got his show-business start in my Upstate NY hometown, working in both a radio and a TV station. He also attended Syracuse University.

I remember watching ‘American Bandstand’ in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Ditto with ‘Where The Action Is’ (summer replacement series in the afternoon), ‘The $25,000 Pyramid’, and ‘Bloopers and Practical Jokes’ (co-hosted with Ed McMahon).

He was 82 years old? Oh my goodness…I found that hard to believe when I heard of his death yesterday!

May ‘the world’s oldest teenager’ now rest in peace!

You know what say about ‘A Rock-n-Roll Heaven’…😉
