Rock Roll and Remember (Dick Clark)

I remember a syndicated show in the 70s called Rock, Roll and Remember with Dick Clark, I found it one early morning by accident, don't remember the station, anyone know of any other stations that carry the vintage show?
 
Not sure about the 70s. Dick started a radio syndication company in the 80s called United Stations. It's still in business today. Dick launched RR&R very early in that company's history, maybe 1985. He was under contract to another radio company before that. He continued doing it until his stroke in 2004. The company continued doing re-runs after that. The show was based on Dick's autobiography of that name, released in the 70s.

I remember driving to NYC on Sundays in the 70s and early 80s listening to that show on WCBS-FM 101.1 from like 5AM-9AM, it's still around somewhere, I couldn't find a list. Maybe it was the early 80s, I don't remember exactly.
 
From what I can see at the website, the show was eventually handed over to KRTH's Gary Bryan and is now called "Rewind."


 
United Stations kept airing Rock Roll and Remember replays from the time Dick Clark had his stroke in 2004 through 2020.
 
I heard it one morning not long ago early morning, I was scanning my internet radio, and I forgot what station it was.

You remember correctly. It started with a six-hour special about Dick Clark himself called "Rock, Roll and Remember", hosted by actor Joseph Campanella. It was based on Dick's book by the same name.

Here's the whole thing, as it aired on KFRC-FM (106.1) on December 28, 1977 (the poster made a typo on the call letters):

In 1981, Dick's United Stations launched it as a four-hour weekly show. It ran from 1982 to 2009, with reruns lasting until 2020. Here's the original print ad in R&R announcing its availability:
