There will NEVER BE ANOTHER ONE LIKE THIS. This is when FOLKS CAN HAVE A GOOD TIME WITH NO BS. ALL ABOUT PARTYING AND LAUGHING DANCING 🤣😅. THANK YOU DON CORNELIUS

The best music ever-the 70’s

That first fella-his skyscraper platform shoes 👠 would make Lady Gaga jealous!!😀

Yea back in the 60s and 70s we had all the good music 🎶 😂

One of the best groups EVER,miss you maurice

PROUD to say I actually danced on that show baaaak in 1978....first white girl to do so. it was an incredible experience, and i'm so thrilled to have had even a tiny tiny part in such a historic/iconic show. Don Cornelius changed the culture......black youth funked their way right into our living rooms, and we ate it up! Rest In Peace Visionary, Don Cornelius......glad to have met you.

(from Bolivia) thank you. since funk music is a sound for everyone ... i always wondered if there were ever any white dancers.

This Video shows freedom, i mean real freedom! you know cause to many people in this world are worried about what other people are doing or thinking and trying to point fingers here and there as to why this world is the way it is.. This video serves as a reminder to not get to caught up in the game and to let yourself just be free for a min. cause face it, it feels good to just let yourself move to the music without giving one care as to what someone else thinks.

Oh how I wish I could go back and be a teen in the 70's again. It was really a simpler time but such a great time.

Growing up in the 70s as a white boy in Germany in a small town. Once a week the local vinyl store might have a new one of black music, I get it me immediately. Every funky echoes from Black America I sucked with all my nerves, in an era without Smartphones and Internet. I am so happy now to watch the original soul train to keep the funk alive in my daytime, thanks, don cornelius!

THANK GAWD I WAS BORN A BLACK CHILD WHO GREW UP IN THE 70's!!! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, I really enjoy this stuff. It's much more innocent and lighthearted than today. And YES, everyone was skinnier! Dang, we need to get down like this every night folks, and lose some bigtime pounds!

THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER ERA LIKE THIS...

The good old days wish l could turn the clock back where everyone just wanted to dance and vibe to the music 🎵🎵🎵 unlike all the crime that's going on in the world today u can't even have fun anymore without all this violence hoping and praying for better days ahead.Barbara Fogg

Every single person in this video is such a personality. The fashion, the dancing -- unforgettable!!!

I am a white guy, and lovin' it! Let's bring this stuff back and save the world!!!

First EWF single I bought funky song

What an era! People danced any way they wanted and showed off and everybody dug it!

The body's just letting the music take over 🙌

An All-American show... still lives on part of history and part of myself very proudly hispanic all the way, but with so much soul as a brother long live in everybody's heart SOUL TRAIN FOREVER!!!!

@AnitraJ2011, i saw you at 0;37 of the Soul Train Dancers Jungle Boogie clip (1973). You were so tiny and cute. Dancing at that time was more about getting on the floor and having fun, thats it. I feel so fortunate to have grown up during that period of dance and music, great memories

It is no longer possible to be this cool.

They all have the perfect bodies for the awesome styles from back then...do people even dance anymore these days??...We did, and we had Fun.

make me a time-machine and i'll stay in the 70's forever.

ahhh when everyone was young and beautiful!

We are people of the mighty mighty people of the sun.

So nice and I m very happy to see all brothers and sisters just dancing and playing with shows love in America in early 70s

It was all fun back then. Nobody was worried about fighting. If you go to the club now 9 times out of ten somebody is going to get in a fight.

1:12 Alpha Anderson doing his Alpha kicks, which he passed on to the Lockers and Ana Sanchez

I bet there are some grandparents looking at this and going "shit, there I am, son come look!"

I SO want to go back!

Can't nobody tell me, that black indenginist, soulful brothers and sisters, don't have rhythm, in our blood. Peace mighty mighty, people of the sun.

:::Sniff::: I miss the 70s. It was a great time to be young!

Proud to be born black

I think rap music/culture has made young people more aggressive, just look how much fun everyone is having here, no gangsta attitudes present. Bring back the funk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love those dress very nice for funky dancing.

Soul Train! I loved that show!

This is such great, great bass playing! Verdine has always been Blessed to play SO in the pocket!

One thing about the '70s,platform shoes, gave you more soul!

This is really beautiful. But it was hard work, and the rehearsals were pretty intense. Still, the entire cast was young, beautiful, fit, and really wanted to be there. A few actually went on to make nice careers for themselves in entertainment. Thanks again for posting this! Best. Peace!

i miss those day everyone was havin a good time an the clothes the best

music is energy and this song was nuclear...

Wooowwwww!!!!these people have the rythm on their veins. Cool dance If I would have been an afroamerican guy I would had enjoyed a lot dancing and dancing , an dancing, and dancing every tracks in some discos around.... jeje ( Sorry for my basic english)

Can you imagine !! We're watching our grandfather's funk it up , today were all old and so many are gone.

Holly Crap, that's fun.

It wasn't just the dancing. I was a teen of the early 70's and it was rare to see a young person obese or very over weight back then. Unfortunately, the fat trend started in 90's and now obesity in the youth is commonplace. Sad.

They ought to do this part on American Soul!!😃😃

The style of clothing the dancers had then was classic and the dance moves could never be repeated again.

I love the fact that soul train let the couples come down the together line and throw down and I was 4 yrs old then my mommy and daddy was partying then goodness!

They getting down doing the funky chicken lol😅😂😂

when people still had style and dressed amazingly.

I am loving the music and the outfits, LOL Ahh, the 70s were fun, thanks for sharing the video

The dancers are so beautiful. They are all original and all impressive. I never realized it when I was a kid watching it.

The cape at 1:36 is actually an XL coat. And yes, it is exquisitely and fabulously cool!

That's is a real party! I just love this song and the video is perfect. We need more funk in ours lives and more dance!

Oh my damn!!! They was killin' it!! Just too cool, too cool.

One of the best music of all times

The Best Dancers!!!!

Great dancing! Love this song too. Never hear it anymore.

the footwear in the 70s was crazy

Damn, I miss the '70s.

wish i was born this time

This was back in the day when they actually danced on Soul Train. Later on seemed liked all they were doing were posing or clowning.

I miss these days when we stuck together

1:34 couple's my fave, girl looks good and dude brings out the CAPE!

I like the glamour boy at 1:02, hehe! Imagine if people dressed like folks in this video now days. They would get made fun of. I think it's great. Men and women wore platforms, and the same hair do's. No booty shakin' or grinding, real dancing, nothing holding them back. Nice.

we were all BLACK back then. no matter the shade. now anyone a slight shade above a brown paper bag wants to claim "other","biracial","multi-racial".....ect anything but the truth - BLACK be proud of it.

Man, i miss soul train!!!! :o Bring it back!

no sé si tiempos pasados fuerón mejores , pero lo qué es en múisica desde que si lo fuerón ♫♫♫♫

Moon shoes had an advantage during slide steps - you could glide long and stop sudden by throwing your balance forward. Broke my dancing teeth on them.

@summersbr1 I also found another clip of me if you'd like to see view the Sout Train Dancers Jungle Boogie (1973) clip. I have on rolled up jeans and red tights. Much to my surprise this clip of me was used in a Halle Berry movie Frankie and Alice.

You can feel like you look like all that, like something else, or like anything or whatevah you want - it ain't gonna change that the music is on, you can get right into it's groove and get down on it!

This is pure EWF Funk. They went in a more commercial direction, for the good, but I missed that nasty.

Qué demasiado!,estupendo!

Speak for yourself. I was a dance champion back in the day and I can still get down like that.
