Juke Joint - November 5, 2023

This week on “The Juke Joint” broadcast, Robert Barclay features blues, Cajun and zydeco music by Albert Collins, Son Seals, Johnny Littlejohn, CJ Chenier, Terrance Simien, Gatemouth Brown, Johnny Shines, BeauSoleil, James Cotton and Buckwheat Zydeco.

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.
