We recently had the absolute thrill to check out the magical new video for “Dick Cavett” from Marc Ribler’s Story Road. you can check out the video below

First we want just come out and say that this is probably one of the most creative videos we have seen in quite some time . The “Dick Cavett” video from Wicked Cool Record’s Mark Ribler’s Story Road is absolutely genius.

Renowned Rock n Roll figure Marc Ribler, a multifaceted artist (singer, songwriter, musician, and producer) who has served as the 
longtime musical director for Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul, 
is living proof that dreams can indeed materialize.

Ribler explains, “Like so many of us, I grew up with the Dick Cavett show. In retrospect it is eminently clear that Dick was one of the most important presenters of the rock ‘n’ roll renaissance, not to mention introducing all the key players in every awe-inspiring and earth-shaking event happening in our culture in the 60s, 70s and beyond.

I had a dream that one fine day I wrote a song called “Dick Cavett”, In some 5th dimension magical, mystical reality, Dick heard the song, loved it and asked if I’d like to come to his house to make a music video. Either I’m in a 60s time warp tripping my ass off, or this dream has come true. Many thanks to Dick and his lovely wife Martha – who also appears in the video.”

The “Dick Cavett” video was directed by longtime Cavett collaborator 
Robert Bader and produced by SiriusXM Underground Garage personality 
Rich Russo and Bader.

Ribler and his star-studded entourage — which includes Sopranos actors Maureen Van Zandt (“Gabriella Dante”) and Vincent Pastore (“Big Pussy”) — pay a visit to Cavett’s Connecticut residence, proving the old adage that the show must go on…

Featuring vintage clips of iconic guests like Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Janis Joplin, and many more from The Dick Cavett Show, Ribler’s “Dick Cavett” music video is a nostalgic, affectionate, and irreverent homage to the namesake of the song.

March 4, 2024 will mark 56 years since the culture-defining Dick Cavett Show premiered on ABC. The Emmy award-winning program featured interviews with major figures in pop culture, rock and roll, jazz, politics, art, literature, sports and beyond.

Co-written and co-produced by Ribler and Stevie Van Zandt, “Dick 
Cavett” is the latest single off ‘Armageddon’, the new album from Marc
Ribler’s Story Road.

Marc Ribler’s “Dick Cavett” was recently named one of top 10 “Coolest Songs In The World” by listeners of SiriusXM’s The Underground Garage.

His band Story Road, features Ribler on guitar and vocals, Charley Drayton on Drums and Jack Daley on bass. For the latest album ‘Armageddon‘, the trio hunkered down in a rock n roll bunker called Dug Deep Studios and poured their hearts and souls into Ribler’s songs during the cold dark days of the COVID 19 pandemic.
