The Best of Soul Train Vol. 3 Time Life DVD cover featuring classic soul and R&B artists

Time Life      25393-X



notes:


This third volume is particularly interesting because
 it combines classic Soul Train performances with
 the dancers and visual culture that made the program unique.
 From The O'Jays' Love Train and Stevie Wonder's medley 
to Aretha Franklin, Teddy Pendergrass, Lou Rawls and 
The Jackson 5, the DVD documents an important
 part of the history of American soul and R&B television.

For collectors of classic soul, funk, R&B and Soul Train
 memorabilia, The Best of Soul Train Vol. 3 is an interesting 
Time Life release that preserves performances from 
one of the most influential music television programs of its era.
