Soul rose to fame in the 1970s as Sergeant Kenneth "Hutch" Richard, one-half of the hit series Starsky & Hutch.

For four seasons, Soul co-starred alongside Paul Michael Glaser, who played his detective sidekick Sergeant David Michael Starsky.

The series revolved around the two Southern California detectives as they pounded the streets of the fictional Bay City, cruising in their iconic red-colored Ford Gran Torino.

The series grew so popular it generated a host of children's toys and later inspired the 2003 video game Starsky & Hutch, as well as the 2004 film starring Ben Stiller as Starsky and Owen Wilson as Hutch.

The original duo of Soul and Glaser even made a cameo appearance in the 2004 movie.
