Back in the day, Soul Train ruled Saturday nights. And since I'm chilling at home watching Soul Train reruns (thanks to TIVO), I thought I would share some Soul Train lines with y'all
I remember when MTV and VH1...and CMT used to play music videos. Sad. Now, they ladle out "celebreality," redneck remodeling, and whatever MTV has on TV.
Some really good dancers in that group. I have to admit that I was glad to see the "whistle-blowers" go out of fashion. Nothing ruins your hearing like being next to someone on the dance floor blowing a whistle. Ouch!! It always reminded me of someone having to make noise saying,"Hey, tweet, tweet, look at me, tweet, tweet!! " ;-)
I remember it too. Started watching in the mid 70's.
ReplyDeleteOf course that tapered off a bit when MTV came around, and MTV tapered off when BET carried music vids in the early 80's.

Yeah, the whistle is a bit much, but I like it a little.
