American Soul

Loving the show ATM but did all this really happen?

I remember watching Soultrain every Saturday. Soultrain always featured the best musical acts and dancers in its time. This series is a great look into exactly how Soultrain developed into one of the best Saturday afternoon dance shows ever. The powerful intro to this series is sadly a stark reminder as to the eventual demise of "Brother" Don Cornelius, the original shows brilliant inovator. The roles and appearance of Don and Gladys Knight are spot on with the current cast. I'm looking forward to viewing the rest of the series. I would love to see an updated version of Soultrain come back to TV once again...But then again I'm not sure it could come close to being as cool as the original.

I look forward to this show each week. The cast is so beautiful and I've been wondering where these talented beautiful people have been hiding. Great story telling, great music and great talent. I love this show.

Watching Soul Train on Saturdays when I was a young teen was so enjoyable. I'm white, but I loved Don Cornelius and the Soul Train Dancers. The show brought music hard to find in my small country town. Something I was thrilled to hear. This series goes behind the real show. Loved hearing songs from the time I was 13+. Yay!!! Worthwhile watch for anyone, regardless of color.

Great show and the music and cast are INCREDIBLE. I hope it get a second season .
