Re: RIP Don Cornelius
So sad. He was SOOOOO instrumental just from a business perspective.
Re: RIP Don Cornelius
Wow just wow. I wasn't a fan of R&B when he was hot, but he is truly a legend. He opened doors for a lot of bands that would have most likely not made it. Very sad.
Rub yours on me and I'll rub mine on you

Re: RIP Don Cornelius
So sad...as another part of my youth is gone.
In high school, I would sleep in on Saturdays until noon, get up and watch American Bandstand and then that would lead into Souuuuuul Train.
Sail on Don....
