This week, we are joined by two guests -- Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Jimmy Jam and the insightful music journalist, author and podcaster Andrea Swensson as we share stories about Jimmy's legendary friend and mentor Prince, who passed ten years ago on April 21st, 2016, and also celebrate the remarkable and enduring story of James Samuel "Cornbread" Harris, Jimmy's father and a beloved musician in his own right in the history of music from Minneapolis, Minnesota who will turn 99 on April 23rd. It's a powerful story about fathers & sons now told in the book, "Deeper Blues: The Life, Songs & Salvation of Cornbread Harris" by Andrea Swensson with an Afterword by Jimmy.
