Soul Train: The Music, Dance, and Style of a Generation by Questlove

3.0

This is a 'coffee table' book and of course these books are dependent on the photographs more than written text. I have the digital copy of this book, and of course in this case that's hardly a comparison to nice glossy paper photographs. However, the digital book was a lot of fun to thumb through and the pictures were very nice, mostly in color, and the information is organized into sections, reminding readers of many fond memories.

The book covers the performers, highlighting standouts and influencers. Naturally, the dancers are featured prominently, as well has the clothing and hairstyle trends.

Overall, this was fun book to thumb through, but I'm sure the hardcover is the way to go in this case. A must for the hardcore Soul Train fan.
