This video was recorded on February 10, 2014 at the Harold Washington Library in downtown Chicago.

The participants were:

Ericka Blount Danois - author of "Love, Peace and Soul - Behind the Scenes of America's Favorite Dance Show Soul Train"
http://www.facebook.com/lovepeaceandsoul

Gene Chandler - the vocalist forever immortalized as the "Duke of Earl", his smash hit from 1962

Marshall Thompson - vocalist from the 'Chi-Lites' ( "Have You Seen Her", "Oh Girl"... )

Richard Steele - radio host & deejay, correspondent and music maven for decades in Chicago (a.k.a. 'The Real Richard Steele')

George O'Hare - civil rights activist, advertising executive and early "Soul Train" proponent

Jerome Simmons - writer, official photographer for the Chicago version of "Soul Train"

NOTE: When you buy "Love, Peace and Soul", please do so at your local independent book store, even though it will cost you a couple of bucks more than via the on-line behemoths. The thought of a world with no indie bookstores is unbearably bleak.

THANKS to Ericka Blount Danois, the book's author, and Jake Austen of Roctober Magazine ( http://roctober.com) for the assistance they provided to TheMotionDevotion in the creation of this video.
