History

The show was written by Pam Miller and produced by Frank Furino. and named after the autobiography Clark co-wrote with Richard Robinson. In each episode Clark profiled a different rock 'n' roll artist from the 1950s and 1960s. He also counted down the top four songs that week from a certain year in the 1950s, 1960s or early 1970s. In 2004, when Clark suffered a stroke, the show was terminated. Repeats are still broadcast on a regular basis, both in syndication as well as on Clark's personal website.

Beginning in 2009, Clark merged elements of Rock, Roll and Remember with the syndicated oldies show, Rewind with Gary Bryan. The new show was called Dick Clark Presents Rewind with Gary Bryan. Bryan, a Los Angeles radio personality, serves as the main host. Clark contributed profile segments.
