Remaking SOUL TRAIN



How would you improve the Soul Train show?

For starters, I would make sure that everyone sang & played instruments live. I think more people would watch if the performers didnt lip synch week after week. Its your turn now. What do u all think?

There's no reason for it to still be on the air because nowadays there's no good music out there to put on it. There's certainly none fast enough to dance to.

The soul train line is still fresh. The women suck though, they just shake their ass.

I find it so funny when he (Dorian Gregory) tries to act hip - the sad part is, I really don't think he has a clue as to how misplaced he is...

The girls are still hot, though razz

The funny thing about Soul Train is that artists go on there just to lip-synch to their own songs.

Soul Train. Top of the Pops. American Bandstand.

What the difference? They all lip-synch.

Top Of The Pops is the british version of American Bandstand...well, not really cause I think its more of just a performance show.....no kids dancing around lookin like fools....and unlike American Bandstand its still going on strong.....

speaking of going strong...How are Dick Clark and Don Cornelius healthwise?
