May you live to be a hundred and me a hundred minus a day, that I may never know that nice people like you would pass away. Thank you Don for Saturday mornings - I'm black and I'm proud.
In high school 1965-68, I never tried to pick up steps and moves from ABS, t was always watching those kids o ST! I was a white kid but I knew who had the best moves! R.I.P. Don Cornelious!
I would change a few channels after seeing "American Bandstand" to get "Soul Train." I admit some locations would air him on the same channel right after AB.
Don Cornelius rip Soul Train with the best I think that I remember when I got up and and I was young at the time I was just like her on my brother is watching and the Jacksons and Marvin Gaye and all them is in there Janet Jackson with Michael Jackson
Don Cornelius was arrived because it was the right time for such a great fellow like him! Nowadays, the sound has gone, the rhythm too and people do not worth at all. It is a matter of culture and the nowadays culture is not a culture but just a pretended one.
