James is running the show solo today, and he's got a box full of mid-tempo steppers, floaters, beat ballads, finger snappers, mellow grooves, and soulful tearjerkers. The Beat may not be as Driving as usual, but you'll still want to get out on the dance floor. You'll hear tunes from Arthur Alexander, Dee Dee Warwick, Jimmy Hughes, Irma Thomas, Chris Clark, James Carr, Jimmy Radcliffe, Barbara Mason, and more!
