Soultrain got sold

Soultrain got sold. Soul Train the Longest running show practically got sold recently. Don Cornelious Sold the show to Madvision. now maybe there might be old dvd's or special features,etc... this is One of the Most Important shows. it was the Black Answer to American bandstand and it meant so much socially back in the 70's through early 80's. there is a whole generation of kids who look at soultrain and might wonder what the fuzz was all about? much like when I was a kid and didn't get the full fuss over some shows that pre-dated my time. but Soultrain was a show I always watched as a Kid. never missed a episode. Soultrain was the place to see the latest dances, check out the Hottest acts going and some of the Finest Ladies on the Planet. Soultrain being bought takes me back 20 years ago when Motown Records got sold and it was a tough time for my mentally because of the social and cultural importance it meant to me and the Black Community. this should be interesting at what happens with those older episodes. youtube has shown so many classic clips and episodes and the memorys are timeless.
