Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to Ferris Wheel Soul. I'm gonna talk about music from the days of Solar Records when tunes were spinning from the records. Those were good days. Those were the best days of music.
Solar Records was founded in 1977 by Dick Griffey. It was reconstituted out of Soul Train Records only two years after it was founded with Soul Train television show host and creator Don Cornelius.
SOLAR began in 1975 as Soul Train Records, founded by Dick Griffey and Soul Train creator Don Cornelius.[2] The first act they signed was an R&B vocal quartet they named The Soul Train Gang (Gerald Brown, Terry Brown, Judy Jones, Patricia Williamson, and later Denise Smith), who performed one of Soul Train's many themes, "Soul Train '75". Their first album was entitled Don Cornelius Presents The Soul Train Gang. In 1976, their second album, The Soul Train Gang, produced by Philly's Norman Harris, was released. The Gang broke up in 1977.
Next, I'll be talking about the Soul Train Gang and their music. You're listening to the Ferret-FWS. Another edition of the Ferret. Ferris Wheel Soul is about the artists of Solar Records and the days of Soul Train. Tune in again next time for more FWS-Ferris Wheel Soul.
