    DC took all of america by storm with his music program. Not just for black people, but for all people. No other dance show in history will ever top what Soul Train has ever accomplished.

    Soul Music wouldn't be where it is today without Don's contributions. I was expecting him to live long. It was a shock that it all came down to a suicide. I hope his legacy lives on..
