Styx founding member and bassist Chuck Panozzo is interviewed over the phone by Goldmine editor Patrick Prince for this episode of the Goldmine Podcast. Chuck started the band with his brother (drummer) John and lead singer Dennis DeYoung in 1961/1962 in their childhood Chicago neighborhood. All these years later, DeYoung is no longer in the band, John has passed away and Chuck, because of health reasons, only performs limited duty with Styx. For this new Styx album, Crash of the Crown, Chuck traveled down to guitarist Tommy Shaw’s sound studio in Nashville to record his share of the tracks. Chuck shares time with the other bassist in the band, Ricky Phillips. Chuck Panozzo is proud of this new album and very proud of Styx's legacy moving forward. part of Pantheon Podcasts.
