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:
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.
