1st Logo

(October 2, 1971-June 23, 1990)

Nicknames: "DCP",  The DCP Logo 

Logo: As superimposed on Soul Train, scrolling up we see "dcp" in a rounded font. Under that is "A DON CORNELIUS PRODUCTION".

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds/Voice-over: The end theme. Announcer Sid McCoy would say "This has been a Don Cornelius Production". From 1980-1982, this would be followed by "...In association with Tribune Entertainment".

Availability: Uncommon. It's found on all episodes of Soul Train from the era currently aired on Bounce TV and occasionally on Centric.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo

(September 22, 1990-March 5, 2006)

Nicknames: "CGI DCP", "dcp"

Logo: On a black background, we see a blue light. The blue light rotates the letters "dcp" in a rounded font. "DON CORNELIUS PRODUCTIONS" rotate next to it. This ends up straight in this result:

dc---DON CORNELIUS

p---PRODUCTIONS--

when this happens, the blue light disappears. FX/SFX: The rotating logo. Music/Sounds: A synth chord. Availability: Seen on Soul Train on Bounce TV and occasionally on Centric. Editor's Note: None.
