Music tributes to Don Cornelius

One of the great things about Spotify is it's social aspect.  The ability to make playlists and then share them is right up my alley. 

Check out my Spotify profile and you'll find a growing number of playlists.  From there you can simply subscribe to them and they'll appear in your own playlists on the left sidebar.

On the passing of Don Cornelius last week I thought I'd pay tribute by making a couple of playlists.  One is uptempo dance music, perfect for the Soul Train line while the other is some of those great soul slow grooves. Soul Train began it's national run in 1971 so I concentrated on songs from that year through the end of the 70s when the show was in its prime.
