In 1971, Campbell joined the cast of Soul Train once the program arrived in Los Angeles. He was a featured dancer until 1973, when he was removed from the program for requesting that performers be paid.[3] He then recruited other dancers who had been removed for the same reason, and with them founded the Lockers.[4]

RIP Don Campbell.
