| How many remember Don Kirshner's Rock Concert? As a teenager, I'd come home late on a Friday night after "dragging the strip", blasting tunes on my killer car stereo and drinking a few Miller Ponies or Mickey's Big Mouths and immediately flip on the TV and watch Don Kirshner.One of my favorite... | |
