FILE - In this Oct. 27, 1981, file photo, television personality Dick Clark shines a new sign that changes a portion of Philadelphia's Market Street to American Bandstand Boulevard, to recognize the 30th anniversary of the popular dance program that originated in Philadelphia. Philadelphia has a rich musical legacy: It's birthplace of the lush acoustic style known as The Sound of Philadelphia and the hometown of "American Bandstand" and Chubby Checker's "Twist." But there's no major museum or other place of pilgrimage for music fans that encompasses the city's music history. (AP Photo, File)
