Yes, he was the "Dick Clark of soul music" and truly brought R-n-B to the masses, including middle America. He went beyond the disco years and furthered the development of rap music too. It's really hard to believe we lost him, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, and Donna Summer so close to each other. I wonder if anyone will ever revive Soul Train and bring it back to TV... | |

It ain't Soul Train without Don Cornelius. "Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything." --Plato
