Juke Joint: November 12, 2017

This week on "The Juke Joint" Robert Barclay featured blues harp veteran Charlie Musselwhite, Part 3. He included more from his interview with Charlie as he discusses his work with Tom Waits, Cindi Lauper, Ben Harper, the Blind Boys of Alabama and his 11 Grammy nominations.

Robert Barclay launched "The Juke Joint" broadcast on WCMU in April 1985. It has been a Sunday night fixture from 8:00-11:00 pm ever since. A devoted listener dubbed him the "Duke of Juke." He includes nearly a century's worth of blues history on his program including traditional and contemporary blues along with boogie woogie, soul music, rhythm & blues, zydeco and gospel music.
