	American Bandstand
		As the success of the televised Bandstand grew, Dick Clark took over the disk jockey duties of the radio program while Bob Horn was broadcasting in front of the cameras.
		Once Clark took over the helm of Bandstand in 1956, he insisted on racially integrating the show, since much of the music was performed by fl recording artists.
		Though often denigrated at the time because of disco's emergence in working class and ethnic communities, the musical style was the logical focus for the show, given its historic reliance on presenting teenagers dancing.

		It premiered locally as Bandstand on Philadelphia television station WFIL on October 7, 1952 in "Studio 'B'", which was located in their just-completed addition to the original 1947 building (4548 Market Street), and was hosted by Bob Horn.
		In 1963, the show moved to Saturday afternoons, and in 1964 the show was moved from Philadelphia to Los Angeles.
		Standout performances on American Bandstand include a chaotic 1980 appearance by the (at that time) abrasive art-rock ensemble, Public Image Limitedâ”a fact often suspected of being an urban legend, which is nonetheless confirmed by broadcast videotapes and by Dick Clark himself.

		Bandstand's influence was greatly augmented by its intimate relationship with Festival Records -- not surprising, given that Gyngell was a former senior employee.
		Bandstand came to epitomise Australian popular music during the "quiet years" from 1960-64, and its leading stars like Col Joye largely defined the look and sound of the period.
		Bandstand is credited with launching the career of Billy Thorpe in 1964, but by the end of its run it would have been unimaginable to see the new hard-rock incarnation of Thorpie on Bandstand, delivering the kind of the blistering live-in-the-studio set that he performed for Happening '72.

		A review of historical images shows a bandstand as the one constant landmark on the Green; all other parts we identify as the Green (trees, monuments, roadways, walkways, fences) have changed over time.
		As a practical landmark, the Bandstand reinforces the sense of ‘village’ and by so doing, serves as an effective traffic-calming device and contributes to the safety and security of the community.

	Television Heaven \| American Bandstand (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		American Bandstand (as it was renamed) soon became daytime’s top-rated program as millions of kids across the US rushed home after school to check out the latest dances, which dance couples were going steady (or breaking up), and which acts would lip-sync their latest hits.
		The practice was not illegal at the time; critics of rock and roll claimed the producers of rock were paying to get their songs on the air, pushing out so-called "good music." When the "payola" scandal hit in late 1959, Clark denied playing records for money.
		But the ratings declined, and "Bandstand" was no longer the barometer of teenage taste as it had been in the late 1950’s and early 1960’s.
