The man was an icon for 30 years. Hopefully he found the peace he was looking for.

so sad he went that way, I'll never forget Bowie on "Soul Train" coked out of his head, it was the black American Bandstand, Bowie was the first white to be on the show, Elton John was also on Soul Train later on.
R.I.P. Don Cornelius.

Bowie on Soul Train.

I heard THAT.  For a teenaged boy in the 70s, Soul Train
was as good as porn.

It's sad.  That show was all about peace, love and dance moves.  We need more Soul Train.

Yes!  Nice thoughts.

What a great show it was.  Whitey even got it finally.  I think anyone who watched it, especially young, was enriched.

He was suffering from an illness, not sure what illness but I guess he didnt want to die a slow painful death.
