Mel & Tim - I May Not Be What You Want

[SpoonthaLee]

If Soul Train would not have required artists to lip sync, it would not have been able to produce the phenomenal legacy that it has. I thank God for Don Cornelius and everyone who had anything to do with Soul Train. For without them, the general population may have had to do without this kind of soul stirring entertainment.

I Believe This Was A Video Clip From The 52nd Edition Of "Soul Train" On March 3, 1973.

That's Rerun from the old T.V. Show "What's Happening" that picked up the mic. Wearing the yellow vest near the stage.

I always liked the Bobby Sheen version on Warners. Anyone ever hear it?

[prettycountrygirl2]

Did anyone notice around 1:21 when the microphone fell, or one of the dancers jokingly pulled it down. It was replaced just in the nick of time.

[prettycountrygirl2]

I remember this. Still sounds GREAT. Thanks for posting it here.

[jerry37able]

Remember when songs where about real love not about taking somebody elses woman like the songs they make today.
