That sure as hell looks like a good episode 
Too bad Soul Train isn't aired in Finland  It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.

Great episode.
Al Wilson had a little fine back-up singer, the chick with the afro puff. Kool looked so young, brotha had some fanga waves goin' and the Natural our seemed like a pretty good vocal group. PRINCE: Always and Forever

This was a great episode. Kool and the Gang absolutely turned it out.
Dammitt, I had the whole thing recorded onto DVD, labeled the DVD, and finalized it. When it got finished finalizing, it said "error" or "bad disc". It was not a damn bad disc. I turned it off and turned it back on several times. I even unplugged it and plugged it back in with no luck. Oh well, it comes on the local channel again tonight at 11:30. This time I'm taking no chances. I'm going to record it with the VCR and then transfer it to DVD. Andy is a four letter word. | |

funkpill said: Timmy84 said: Yeah that girl looked scrumptious. And the one Brenda Gordon today is known as Brenda Russell Ms. Piano In The Dark herself Interesting bit of trivia. I didn't know that this thread was started so I actually started one about finding the episode and the fact AL Wilson's "Touch and Go" was actually first on Cher's 1971 "Gypsies, Tramps and Theives" album (his version seems to add a much needed verse...her version was way too short). Seems like a strange cut to not only cover but make a hit. Cher usually is the person that covered songs back at that time. Maybe it wasn't originally for her? | |

Dammitt, I got home Saturday night and the only thing on my tape was that damn "American Idol" bullshit. Apparently, something must have run over early in the evening and delayed everything by one hour. When that happens, they usually eliminate something on late night programming. Instead of eliminating some bullshit like "American Idol" (which should never have been on the air anyway), they eliminated something good like "Soul Train".
I tell ya, this just hasn't been my weekend. Andy is a four letter word. | |

That was a good episode. Music had such a good vibe back then. THe audience was energetic AND asked questions about artists responsibility to the community. Plus they danced their asses off, and the music was killin! Do yall think the people seemed inspired because the music was uplifting, or was the music uplifting cause the people were inspired?  A happy face, A Thumpin Bass, For A Lovin' Race. PEACE. | |

Al was cool. Do all of his songs have 3 syllables? He did "touch and go", "broken home", he's known for "show and tell".. what waS next? "see and say", speak and spell", "drop and roll"? A happy face, A Thumpin Bass, For A Lovin' Race. PEACE. | |

I went crazy when they played "I'm In Love" by Aretha Franklin 
I remember this song so vividly,my mom used to play it all the time.Back in 1974,she had the album 'Let Me In Your Life'.This album also contains the hit "Until You Come Back To Me (That's What I'm Gonna Do)".As a child,I would always hear these two songs played back-to-back.Man,those were the days! | |

I loved the show. the soul train line, though, was so horrible the show could have gotten cancelled. I don't know who directed the line but he should have been fired and the editor. that one lady who does the robot and thangs can dance! and the guy at the end of kool and the gang was hilarious.nipsy | |

Did anyone catch Darnell Williams doing the ST Scramble Board? If you don't know, he played Jesse on All My Chidren in the late 70s and early 80s. Kind of funny that it took he and his partner so long to figure out "Bill Withers" on the scramble board.
