Subject: RIP, Don Cornelius

Written By: LyricBoy on 02/01/12 at 8:58 am

The legendary dance show host and producer Don Cornelius is reported dead at the age of 75 today.

Don was the king of soul, conductor of the train. As he and I share a name he was almost my 'soul brother'.

RIP, Mr. Cornelius. Thanks for all those funky dance characters.  :)

TSOP is the most funkiest dance song from Soul Train.

Yeah. With Don and Fred "Rerun" Barry gone, there's no point in a reunion show. :-\\

Don had one of the biggest 'fros back in the day, almost as big as Angela Davis...  8)
