Dick Clark Interviews Wolfman Jack - American Bandstand 1976 

RIP: Wolfman Jack 1995. RIP: Dick Clark 2012. Two Music Legends.

Genuine good guy. Wolfman. All he ever wanted was for people to have a good time

Wolfman Jack was on the radio all over the place. Whenever we went he was still in range. Great memories!

Merry Christmas everyone!! RIP to the great Wolfman Jack and the great Dick Clark

Use to listen to him back in the 70's. What a great voice he was.

Gawd I miss The Wolfman! any other 70's kids feeling me here?

No other like him, he is a true legend and no other radio personality will ever be able to touch his greatness, so eat that Steve Harvey.

Two great legends that are truly missed. RIP Dick and Jack.

I was born in the 1980's and even I know about him. He is a rare gem 💎 amongst many.

Two wonderful guys. I miss them both so much. 2 legends

I am almost 63, and remember sneaking my transistor radio into my bed under the covers as a 13 year old, and listening to Wolfman Jack

Dick clark is so rehearsed, Wolfman is flowin with creativity. I still listen to Wolfman and Dick on our local radio

Wolfman once said, "Don't ever let that tobacco monkey on your back. You will never get rid if him and he will be the death of you" and sadly, the tobacco drug killed Wolf at a very early age!

One of the saddest things about his passing was he’d just published his memoirs and died before he could go out and promote it. His book had so many great stories and we never got to hear him tell them

There will never another Wolfman Jack or Dick Clark. I used to watch Bandstand and remember this bit.

Rest In Peace Wolf Man. Man I really miss him and Dick Clark too. May they both Rest In Peace.🙏🙏 Who ever posted this thank you for sharing this treasured memory. God bless, I used to listen to both.

R.I.P. Wolfman Jack; who passed away on this day in 1995 {July 1st} at the young age of 57... And also to Mr. Clark...

oh wow that voice we've never had any DJ's as exciting and entertaining as Wolfman Jack on our radio no fair , bet he was awesome at Halloween

I first heard The Guess Who when I was 12 singing 'Clap For The Wolfman' here in Panama City, FL on 59DLP radio. 3 years later in 1985 WDLP would turn into an oldie station which also started my fascination with history that went way beyond music. And in that year every Saturday night was Wolfman Jack on that radio station with his 'American Graffiti Gold Show'. I really liked the music and his style. I asked a friend on Saturday night if they could give me a ride to the station across town because I really wanted to meet him. And that is when he put me wise that this is a nationally syndicated show being picked up on a satellite signal and then sent through the 590 kHZ signal. Of course when I was 7 and listening to the radio, I thought there were actual musicians at the station singing every song I heard.😄

I listened to his show as a kid in the '70s and early '80s."American Graffiti"(1973)helped to revive Wolfman Jack's earlier popularity.

I like how the Wolfman flips Dick the bird @ 0.33 after being called a Ham...lol...RIP to you both

When I was young in Frankfurt, Wolfgang Jack gave me and my American friends a lot of joy; he was my companion

A legend! He was the master of the airwaves. RIP Wolf man.

There is one thing I really liked about Wolfman Jack was that he would not take payola (Money or drugs)from people to play their records. He only played records he actually liked! I also watched American Bandstand every Saturday too.

Honestly great 👍. Rip Dick Clark and Wolfman Jack . Howl indeed 🎶🎶❤️❤️🖤🖤

On this day in 1973 {February 2nd} the debut show of the NBC-TV weekly program 'The Midnight Special' was aired... Helen Reddy was the show's first host... Musical guests were The Byrds, The Impressions, Don McLean, Rare Earth, and Ike & Tina Turner... Comic relief was provided by George Carlin... The show ran from 1973 to 1981 with a grand total of 158 episodes... R.I.P. Mr. Clark {1929 - 2012} and Wolfman Jack, aka Bob Smith, sometime host of the show {1938 - 1995}...

Wolfman Jack was a true original.

LOL Dick Clark’s howl sounded like a real wolf 😂

they are having jokes and catching up in heaven

Wolfman Jack may be dead, but his classic shows live on..... on SiriusXM 60s on 6.

My auntie dated him...I was so young, I didn't get it....but I do remember his voice seeming odd, but he was nice, and wore big rings and patted my head and said id be his girlfriend when I grew up cause I was the prettiest little girl....he was nice, very nice...can see him in my mind sitting on our couch.

I miss Wolfman Jack, I have always wanted to be like him when I was a little kid (i was born in 1972)

Dick Clark and Wolfman Jack. Two legends that I miss.

I was lucky enough to meet Wolfman Jack in person when I was young. What a cool guy.

First time I did heard him was in Amsterdam 1975 in an American radio were broadcasting to USA military base. I like his voice and his personality

Wolfman Jack's ghost for president 2020

RIP to both of these guys

Wolfman Jack - Champion & Legend RIP

Ya Gotta Love ❤️ The Wolfman!!! Rest In Peace ☮️, Wolfman & Dick Clark

I was born in 1994 and consider the wolfman an idol. Certain personalities stand the test of time and influence some for generations. LETS HEAR IT FOR THE WOLFMAN AAAAWWWOOOOOO!!!!!

Two of the greats.❤❤ Miss them both so much. R.I.P. guys. Pretty sure they are playing the oldies in Heaven.

Talk about range! I remember catching his show on XERB all the way north at Lake Tahoe in the late 60s. Ridiculous! Loved it! "You listenin' to da Wolf Man, baby!"

I had my whole body dipped in lukewarm Clearasil. LOL

I always used to listen to Wolfman Jack's programs on the AFN - American Forces Network - from Holland. I was a teen boy those days and loved his funny voice, noises and the great music he played. AFN we could receive through a powerful transmitter on medium wave band, those days. Dutch radio was boring those days. We only had some great pirate stations like Radio North Sea and Radio Veronice and of course Radio Caroline (Still on internet!) But the Wolfman I'll never forget!

It wasn't every day that Dick had a political genius on his show. Why, I reckon that it wasn't every day that Dick had a chance to even talk with a political genius. Well, anyway, there he was, the Wolfman on American Bandstand, generously entertaining all the children with various stories, a song, and even personal histories.

In 1984, Wolfman Jack starred in his own animated series "Wolf Rock TV", co-produced by DiC (who had Inspector Gadget and The Littles at the time) and Dick Clark. It lasted only eight episodes, though it would be rebroadcast a few years later with Kidd Video as "The Wolf Rock Power Hour."

RIP Dick and Wolfman

RIP to both. 😔

Back then, TV and Radio Air Personalities like Dick Clark and Wolfman Jack did what ever they could to hold an audience without crossing the line. They knew were to stop, but they were both family men too!

Often imitated, but never equaled. I miss the Wolfman.

Back in the day..the Midnight Special concerts with Wolfman Jack were far more entertaining than Don Kirshners Rock Concerts, since the Midnight Specials invited alot of AM radio hit singers whereas Kirshners were simply Rock N Roll.

Pretty sure the Wolfman could teach classes on cool.

Dick and Jack are probably in heaven right now, sharing a case of cigars.

2 Rock-'n'-roll Icons Legends.

The question from the audience asking Wolfman "if he missed his American Graffitti days" refers to the movie by the same name. American Grafitti came out in 1972 and starred a plethora of young talent that later became stars. Richard Dreyfus, Harrison Ford, Ron Howard, Cindy Williams, Paul LaMatt and Suzanne Somers to name a few. Of course, Wolfman Jack was an integral part of the storyline as the local DJ Richard Dreyfus' character (Kurt) seeks late night advice from. If you get the op to see this movie, don't miss it. The Wolfman was his typical self. . .full of life and spirit. Loved them all.

What was so sad about the Wolfman was just when he started to make a comeback had a book out was getting back to making some money again then he died suddenly and I was shocked when i heard about itTHE GUY WAS AN ORIGINAL!

We must remember that was the edge back then how corny we were and how much fun it was because we weren't hurting each other we were busy caring for each other

Thanks for posting this.

the best ever dj...

sadly Wolfman Jack passed away on a Saturday like today 22 years ago, on July 1, 1995.

Is Clark joking with the: "I've watched you on the Midnight Special since I was a little boy..." Clark was ten years older than W.J.!

This Show Was On, The Saturday Before Christmas In 1975.

I had my whole bad body…. Dipped in Lukewarm cleorisil 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The MARINES In San Diego Miss The Wolf Man❤😢

Watching this cause HBOmax has American Graffiti (I'm currently watching) and his voice is in the background often while cars are cruising around.

I wonder why wolfman used to play original rhythm n Blues but never mentioned Blues legend "Howling Wolf" Chess records Chicago. Comin from the South thats the original Wolf right there!

Clap for the Wolfman! He's gonna rate your record high!

Cal Dodd who voiced Wolverine in X-Men The Animated Series was inspired by Wolfman Jack, when voicing Wolverine.

People say I sound like him when I'm sick 😂😂😂😂

Oooh yes

❤❤❤

Wonder if he ever met with Jerry Blavat in Philly - or was there too much "competition" between them? They are two different worlds. I like 'em both in their own.

mercy six rock n roll baby give me some more right back atcha wolfman Jack

Das war der beste Dj 😍😍😍😍

These guys ... sooo smooth, so professional. What a bunch of no - talent bums we're lumbered with these days

RIP Dick and Jack.

Those were the days my friends.

Grew up cruzing after school with Wolfman in LA. He hosted a Haunted Halloween Night, I went to, at Knotts Berry Farm! “Don’t go Wolfman.”

Read his book "HAVE MERCY" it's GREAT!!!!

I want hair and a beard like him.
