      @@RickyCarson - I saw the similarities immediately Ricky as I was a huge fan of your uncle. Bought all of his records starting back in 1972 with "Outa-Space" when I was just a kid. I'm sure you know, Billy's music was played quite a bit on ST in the 70s. I so enjoyed hearing your story. Thanks so much for sharing and the great memories you brought to me as I watched you and everyone else on the dance floor.

    So cool! 🤗My brother, Manny (Manuel Reed) has always been a man of few words; he's ALWAYS been in ACTION --- either via gymnastics, dance, marathon running, or cycling --- Manny will always be a MAN OF ACTION! 😃 It is also endearing to see that Manny also featured pics of his little sis in that long, pink dress in the opening segments of this video! 😆😆😆 This video presentation is fantastic. Congrats to Manny and Brother Rick Carson for being Soul Train legends!

Don't know if I'd go that far, but we've always felt that something should've been presented to represent the dancers on the show. But not to think that we are going unnoticed, there is a woman by the name of Brandy Sanders. Every year she presents ST Dancer Awards Night for selected dancers. It'll probably never make a TV broadcast but it is something that we all appreciate as dancers on the show. But you are correct, there was a lot of creativity on ST! LPS! (Love, Peace and Soul!)

Would love for you two guys to Facebook friend me." Can't wait to hear from Leland Ferguson and Wanda R knight and the female dancer who always wore shades and her hair in a long or short ponytail and a one color top and short dress don't know her name but she started being on the small risers.
