Juke Joint - November 8, 2026

This week on the Juke Joint, host Robert Barclay features the work of some sidemen, including Robert Lockwood, Wayne Bennett, Pat Hare, Lafayette Thomas, and Chuck Norris... along with new releases by Big Harp George, Anthony Geraci, and Reverend Raven & The Chain Smokin' Altar Boys.

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.
