Rock promoter Don Kirshner died @ the age of 76. In the 70's, he had his own series called Don Kirshner's Rock Concert.

He was responsible for The Monkees & The Archies. He was also the music supervisor of 2 CBS Saturday morning series, The Archies & The Amazing Chan & The Chan Clan (1972).

Believe it or not, his company was also responsible for a 1975 CBS game show called Musical Chairs. Adam Wade became the first African American game show host.
