boba Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Sad news, he created an important showcase for soul music that hasn't really existed since. The reason the stuff was never rereleased, btw, had more to do with licensing than him holding the material back (unlike certain other shows). 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

boba Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 that joneses clip is so dope. two of my favorite clips are the blue magic sideshow where they're doing the robot and other sideshow choreography and the dynamic superiors shoe shoe shine (SO over the top). I would like to get a high quality version of the dynamic superiors if anyone here has it and is generous. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

boba Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 one of the best o'jays things on soul train is the episode where they actually have cholly atkins working out the choreography with them, it was awesome. then it cut to them doing "got to give the people" in these awesome suits.
