The Spiders this week on The Juke In The Back!
The Juke In The Back” focuses on the “soul that came before rock n’ roll,” the records that inspired Elvis, Buddy Holly, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and countless others.
New Orleans is not known for its R&B vocal groups. In a city where jazz, blues and zydeco thrive, one vocal group rose to the top: The Spiders. In two short years, the Spiders landed enduring hits like “I Didn’t Want To Do It,” “I’m Slippin’ In” and “Witchcraft,” led by brothers Chuck and Chick Carbo. They were produced by the legendary Dave Bartholomew and recorded at Cosimo Matassa’s J&M Studios with the cream of New Orleans’ session musicians. When the hits stopped coming, Chuck Carbo left the group for a solo career, thus ending their time in the spotlight. Matt The Cat explores The Spiders’ story on this week’s “Juke In The Back.”
Join Matt the Cat for Juke in the Back, this afternoon at 03:00 PM Eastern, after "The Lost Lennon Tapes" and before "Only The 80s" with Anne Cosgrove, on Mushroom FM, the home of the fun guys, making four decades of magic mushroom memories!
