Juke Joint - February 2, 2025

This week on “The Juke Joint” broadcast Robert Barclay will note the passing of soul singer Sam Moore of “Sam & Dave,” Garth Hudson of “The Band,” Josh White Jr. and author Stanley Booth. He will also debut new CDs by Tommy Castro, Bob Corritore, Frank Bey and Eddie 9 Volt. Plus, some more zydeco from Terrance Simien!

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.
