Sad that he passed, I loved watching American Bandstand. I hated seeing him come out the last two years of the New Years show though, his wife should have kept him off the air.

RIP

His passing is the end of an era. He revolutionized American music and the way it was presented.

I hate it when you realize someone who is dead, has died.
