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.
Clark's agent Paul Shefrin said in statement that the veteran host died this morning following a "massive heart attack."

Dang! I've got memories of him from a little kid on. I grew up watching American Bandstand.

New Year's Eve will never be the same. RIP Mr. Clark.

Same here. The man never seemed to age at all. Was sad when he had his stroke and he wasn't able to do New Year's Eve anymore.

R.I.P. Dick Clark

Remember growing up (somewhat) whatching his show live from Phila. Funny how the show was broadcast only about 25 miles from where I grew up but diriving there was somehow not in the cards? Life is funny that way

R.I.P. Dick Clark pass on but not forgotten. God Bless!

We used to dash out the door of our high school in the late 50's, and run home to watch the show.

We all had a major crush on Justine.

His "rate the record" (or something like that) was fun to watch.

"I give it an X, Mr Clark, because I like the beat, and you can dance to it."
