***NEW PODCAST EPS: Charles Chazz Smith shares high school memories and the influence of his cousin Prince growing up***

A very fun new episode of the How Can U Just Leave Me Standing? podcast, just out, captures Prince's cousin 'Chazz' Smith on great form. Shares various memories of the Grand Central High School years.


He talks to Sam about Lincoln Junior High School days, talent shows with other young local musicians and stopping by in various neighbourhood houses, including Sonny T's.


He also shares his thoughts on early musical try-outs and his memories of Prince's Mum and Dad's house back in the day.

Well worth a listen. Link URL below...

The stuff about Charles' Dad and Prince's Dad is interesting, his comparison. Also the influence of Prince's mother on his style.

Even now he - like others - finds it hard to explain Prince's prodigious talent. Lots of good stuff in this episode... but won't list every point here.

The whole eps is about Prince though.

No.

Because there is only one lousy 'sticky' in there from March 2021,

and it's not even about any related artist's podcasts.

The influence of Prince is not ignorable.
