ABOUT SOUL TRAIN
“Soul Train” was created in 1971 by visionary Don Cornelius and
predominantly featured performances by R&B, pop, soul, and
hip-hop artists, in addition to the occasional funk, jazz, disco,
and gospel artists. When the final episode of the show’s historic
thirty-five-year run aired in 2006, it was the longest running
first-run, nationally syndicated program in television history.
“Soul Train” highlighted a cast of incredible, ethnically diverse
dancers who famously introduced the world to a whole new series of
dance moves and styles on a weekly basis. Cornelius opened every
show welcoming the audience to “the hippest trip in America” and
closed each show wishing the audience “love, peace and soul.”
Today, the legacy of “Soul Train” lives on through the legendary
Soul Train dance line, which has become a timeless staple on dance
floors across America. In 2016, BET, acquired the “Soul Train”
brand and remains dedicated to revitalizing the brand while also
honoring its heritage.
