I always look forward to hearing original soul tunes alongside their reggae versions. So I call for a similar themed show. Part 2 if you will.
How about making it an Ariwa showcased show? Original r&b tune followed by the Ariwa production.

JB,
I like the oldies on this one, especially the Barbara Lewis track. JB, I tried to give the new Intro a chance to grow on me, but I guess like others have been saying it doesn’t fit the format. It was a good try at doing something different, but I have to say I like the old intro better. Maybe if you did the same thing as you did with the old one, just on a different Riddim, just a suggestion. Keep doing what you doing, big up to you!!!
