Damn..

Sad day.

Soul train and American Bandstand were weekly staples when I was growing up.

Wow, when Don died two months ago, I said "won't be awhile until Dick goes..."

And look what happened.

RIP Mr. Clark.

Same here.

I am speachless...

had such a huge influence on the music world and my childhood. he will be greatly missed.

It's strange because I do remember spending my early years (3-5) watching Soul Train one hour and American Bandstand the next but Dick left in '89 and Don stay on until '93. The great hosts of rock and roll now up in the sky. There'll never be hosts like those two ever again.

I used to watch his New Years Eve shows every year , sadly i'm to young to have really watched soul train.. but i respect what he did for it.

After he had recovered from the stroke he had I went to see how he would be when he returned to ring in the New Year and I couldn't bare to watch it anymore. That's how sad it was.

Ditto it was depressing specially on NYE.

Wow. RIP. His show was part of my childhood. I saw him live, one day in the late 80s, in NYC when he was visiting an advertising agency I worked for, and he was walking by, with one of the ad execs. He really looked younger than his years in person, at that time. Guess that's why many called him the oldest, living teenager, because he aged well. Prayers to his wife and family.

It's a sad moment for me. But no surprise at all given that Dick survived a stroke only a few years earlier. Nonetheless, I give a final shot out to the TV Legend.

And I still say THIS^ is the best game show theme ever!

Verdine White was just on CNN talking bout how Dick had the song September in his personal jukebox at his home. And how Ryan Secreast could be the next DC
