dick clark

Ryan Seacrest is literally taking over the planet and if you don't agree with that assessment, look at his history.  He's Dick Clark, Merv Griffin, Casey Kasem, and Regis Philbin all rolled into one.

I have respect and appreciation for all genres of music, and I think Stevie Wonder's contributions to American Music are worthy of his 1989 induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

I have to admit to you, I'm usually never THAT excited for awards shows. Well if you  don't count the CMA awards show where I was actually there because Richie and I won one. Tonight, however I am very excited to see the 48th ACM Awards for one particular moment.

Sunday, April 7, 2013 will be the first Academy of Country Music Awards since the passing of Dick Clark. The entertainment icon produced the big event since 1979.

I'm sure we'll all miss Dick Clark.  He was an amazing force in the music and  television industries.  I'm actually shocked that his net worth wasn't up there with Bill Gates.  I guess he didn't reach that level, but he did have extra "disposable income", to be sure.  And here's proof

I have always respected the work of Dick Clark, along with my other broadcast heroes Bob Kingsley, Ralph Emery, Charlie Chase and Lon Helton.
