Legendary Shack Shakers: Music Insanity "Colonel J.D. Wilkes is an icon of musical insanity, whether intentional, unintentional, or somewhere in between. The Reverend Horton Heat, Hank III, and the Dead Kennedys’ Jello Biafra all roar his praises. Wilkes and his band, The Legendary Shack Shakers, bring a spooky edge to Southern revival hell-raising, mixing an unusual array of unlikely instruments with oddball carnival backdrops and gallons of spit and sweat."
