Oh, was Elton the same year too?

I think elton was on after Bowie and Bowie was 75.

Are you talking about the one where Elton is wearing a green hat? I think he was one on before that.

Video spotlight on the Janet Jackson/Atlantic Starr episode: "When The Going Gets Tough".

Forgot about this Billy Ocean video with the "Jewel of the Nile" castmembers Kathleen Turner, Michael Douglas, and Danny DeVito "singing" back-up,

They've shown this one a few times already. Speaking of Billy's backup singers, check out B.B.'s band.

Nice vids... I don't know about B.B.'s drummer, though

I'd never seen the Janet episode before. I either was at work or asleep anytime Bounce TV aired it.

B.B. had to fire that guy because he partied all the time intead of showing up for work.

Hmm, watching an episode and I don't recognize the band... I'm guessing this is Brass Construction...

There has been a change. I don't know if this was because of Don's passing or was already in the works. Monday's are now Soul Mondays as they air Soul Tran 4 time in a row starting at 7 PM. They also seemed to move the 6 AM airing to 4 AM.

Interesting. I guess they're gonna do the same for Centric?

Soul Train is not even on Cebtric schedule anymore. They just played it this past week for Don. Other than that Original 7ven spec,ial a few months back, I can't remember the last time Soul train was on the regular schedule. Once they started adding more sitcoms, it lost its spot.

I see.

Hopefully they will drop the Parkers reruns and put ST back on.

They got to. I don't know where else to go for ST reruns.

And all four episodes were episodes they have played several times before. All those years of episoodes and they play a handful of episodes over and over. Who's doing their programming? Clear Channel?

I'm sayin! I don't know why they keep showing the same episodes over and over.Mix it up a bit!

However, I'd rather see those same episodes over and over instead of the newer ones. Do you know, they had the nerve to not only play some 1990s episodes, but also some 2000s episodes! I mean, how fucking stupid can you get! There's a reason people stopped watching the show during those years, because it was bullshit.

I agree! As far as I'm concerned,Soul Train was "over" by the time the 90s began.I stopped watching it around that time.

You might as well say I stopped watching it after 1984. Rarely did I watch it after that unless a guest was on that I really wanted to see because they were playing a lot of crossover stuff and the dancing had become horrible.

Like i said in the thread previously these episodes are LICENSED, have to pay royalities on the music and/or have all the songs in ths show cleared for airing due to various copyrights of the music for airplay so we dont know the terms and which episodes they acquired

LittleBLUECorvette said:

I think the licence is only for if these episodes were to be sold for a profit, like the set they sell on TV. You don't have to get a music license for reruns. That's the reason why a serie like WKRP in Cinci has never hit the DV market and a series like In Living Color has many sketches and Fly Girl performances edited out. On reruns the ire just lke they did 20 years ago.

Yep, on the Married With Children DVD's, Frank Sinatra's Love And Marriage has been changed to some instrumental music, but on the TV reruns the original theme is still there. I don't know if all of the DVD's are like that, but the one I saw was.

LBC i know what i am talking about since i have dealt with this before, you have a rights & clearances department for any music you want to use on a show, it has nothing to do with being sold for profit. You have to have a the music cleared some of it is public domain depending how many years have passed so thats why you are only seeing select episodes. Syncing and Licensing fees arent cheap.

The reason those skits and songs where taken out of In Living Color is becuase they of licensing fees and alot where limited usage.

there are compaines that handle these things and i am sure someone in Bounce TVs Legal department is deling with this

The PJs is like that also, licensing issues with the music, thats the reason it took a while for it to come to DVD so alot of the music was changed to generic music

There was nothin on the clearance site about syndication. I checked wikepedia about it, coouldn't fond anything.
