Juke Joint - December 12, 2021

This week on “The Juke Joint” broadcast Robert Barclay hosted a “Foodraiser Fundraiser” while spinning the music of Howlin’ Wolf, Muddy Waters, BB King, Etta James, Dion, John Lee Hooker, Koko Taylor, Sue Foley, Ray Charles, Carolyn Wonderland, Bobby Bland, Freddie King and Little Walter.

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.
