π§ #Shalamar's "Second Time Around" was guaranteed to fill the dance floor earlier in the disco evening in 1979.
#Shalamar were produced by #DickGriffey and promoted on #SoulTrain by #DonCornelis, co-owner of #SolarRecords. The female vocalist out front on this song is #JodyWatley who won a #Grammy for "Looking for a New Love" in 1988.

π§ In the late 70s-1980, I played a club DJ. When new 12"s arrived from the record pool, I looked for the #SolarRecords labelβa meteor on fire, zooming through space, leaving a trail of rainbow. Reliably good.
I didn't know then but do now, #DonCornelius and his #SoulTrain producer, #DickGriffey founded the label and helped make/mainstream acts such as #Shalamar and #Lakeside.
"Fantastic Voyage" by #Lakeside (1980).

π¬ YouTube served up #JohnTravolta's solo #dancefloor scene in "Saturday Night Fever," and I remembered what I thought, sitting in a theater in tinytown NC in 1977.
"Shit. Have these people never watched #SoulTrain!" π
That is a mostly true story.

If falling down a Soul Train rabbit hole and encountering Daft Punk in the process is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

Rigger needed! Looking for a rigger/mapper, preferably a #BIPOC artist with #animation experience to work with a legendary, Emmy Award winning Black animator on a project producing culturally sensitive and representational digital content for underserved #AfricanAmerican communities. This is a part-time opportunity to work with the guy who animated the famous train that opened #SoulTrain - the popular dance show. #BlackMastodon #BlackFedi #artistsonmastodon #artists #hiring #artist #Rigger
