Hey hey hey... this is Crystal Calhoun at 2:15 giving a special shout out to Leonard Younger for reposting this video from K.O. Storm. I never saw this clip, not even back in the day when it originally aired. It was nice to watch. Thanks again! Oh yeah, my fabulous sexy outfit was made by non other than the #1 designer in the world Tamechi Briggs. She knows how to make clothes that does a body oh so right, lol! Thanks Tamechi, love you!
@Crystal Calhoun, thank you so much for the fun, your dancing, style& grace, and your undeniable natural beauty. I miss Soul Train. It was the best time for me. Have you done an "I was a Soul Train Dancer" segment yet? 🤷🏿♂️ I hope I've not missed it. 🙋🏿♂️😎👏🏿👏🏿🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I'm 66 and this is something important to know about the 70's.Most young Black folks were built like this physically back then,even if they weren't Soull Train dancers.The diet,lack of exercise outdoors,and other unknown factors have lead to a rise in obesity amongst young Americans,not just young Black people.The majority of us 70's teenagers went from High School graduation to at least 40 years,old with reasonably fit height to weight ratios. Something over time has drastically changed in the American diet and lifestyle affecting weight, and people really don't seem to be aware of it at all.There are some people who are fit now,athletes,dancers,models,etc.But,the general population is overweight much earlier in life than people were during the Babyboom generation for sure...
Excellent point, we were outside playing and partying in the evenings so we kept in shape. We ate everything we wanted and still kept in shape. Today's society are too sedentary , always on their phones. That was a great time in the 70s to early 80s.
Agree 100%! Love watching old Soul Train videos and you can't help notice the huge trimness and fitness of the entire dancers! Not a obese one dancing! I'll walk in a Safeway today and see 50% obesity!
Phones, fast food and we used to have a lot of jobs in the manufacturing industry, those alone kept you in shape. I’m in the trades, mid 50’s and have to do a lot of our overhead work due to weight ratings. The younger folks are too damn big but they don’t shy away from telling the boss why they can’t do it though. I’m lobbying for more pay since I’m doing more than them.
You can make excuses all day and night, but it's 2023 now and the simple fact is that THEY DON'T CARE IF THEY ARE PIGS. Back then, we strove to have perfect, in shape bodies. Those days are long gone.
Soul Train is a hugely important cultural TV show that showcased the Black American experience. It's impact was felt worldwide. The show brought down barriers while opening up hearts and minds.
at appx 35 years, and appx 1820 soul train dance lines, at appx 5 minutes or 9100 minutes (151 hrs of loop programming) total (THERE should be a 24-hour Soul Train Dance line channel on youtube, bet, tv1, source, etc etc
I'm not sure what it means or if in fact means anything but they are all thin??? When did the thick is hot thing happen. I told my wife just the other day that when I was in school everyone was thin now half my kids school is overweight. She swore I was just miss remembering. I'm not sure I was
@@phylliswatson8231Im not exactly sure about that but I do know in between tapings during breaks the soul train dancers got 2 piece box of chicken from Kentucky Fried Chicken and off brand soda, none of the dancers were paid in fact they weren’t looking to get paid because they did it to get exposure
My weight 175 going to keep it off, feel better at my which is 65 back then i played 3 sports so i never had a weight problem, but in the 1980's it came back to bite me 235,on 6foot fram not good for the body More power to 1970's my growing period peace out BBERS
No dirty twerking, no looking half naked, just plain clean dancing with decent fashion sense. I'm sure many of these people who are now grandparents are still showing you that they got the moves. Late 60's child so I'm 55 this years, so I know what this was all about.

Women were women and men were men.
Early 90s!
1991

What episode is this taken from in season 21 back in 1991 on Soul Train?
I wish I could have this era back. But would it be as special as it was when I lived during it? Hmmm...
@0:56 She's my FAVORITE!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I am 56, and this is how we quietly learned how to dance❤❤😂
I accidentally put this on while it was set on 2x while baked outta my mind on the scariest bus in Denver Colorado 🥺😳🤣😕😒🤣🥺🥺🥺I can't nottt
One of the best soul train lines
Only thing I did not get to do was dancing on soul train great show miss it

@Kara Brittany you're absolutely right!
@Badhookem you're spot on! 🙌🏿
Soul Train wasn't trying to hire no fat people, that's why they're all skinny
@@phylliswatson8231Im not exactly sure about that but I do know in between tapings during breaks the soul train dancers got 2 piece box of chicken from Kentucky Fried Chicken and off brand soda, none of the dancers were paid in fact they weren’t looking to get paid because they did it to get exposure
Love soul train ❤
The first guy that danced reminds me of Ben Vereen
At 2:49 the guy who became a famous singer a couple of years later Terence Trent D'Arby was the best dancer.
2:15 MS.cc sweet!!
purtroppo vi seguo da Napoli .
Cool tune!
Excellent dancers even in 2024 !!!
Yes, that was grandma back in the day.
The two bad, fine girls, who knew how to,"Shake it up," and dance, were from 0:03 to 0:19, and from 2:15, to to 2:26-They can get ANY MAN.
correction: 2:15, to 2:26.
I completely agree, those two women were fine af
Holy shit is that Tyra at the very end?!?
No
I have to say that showing the "view frequency" is like caller ID......awesome.
My weight 175 going to keep it off, feel better at my which is 65 back then i played 3 sports so i never had a weight problem, but in the 1980's it came back to bite me 235,on 6foot fram not good for the body More power to 1970's my growing period peace out BBERS
