Description

The ’60s and ’70s album rock moved the nation during the early rock n roll times, the British Invasion, Viet Nam, The Cold War, The Iron Curtain. DC5, Buddy Holly, Beatles, Cream, Zeppelin, Janis, songwriters like Elton and Bernie, John and Paul, Simon and Garfunkel....the list goes on. It rocked through the life and times of the world and it made us feel and helped us numb out. Fifty years later, the albums remain, a little scratched, some stained or even broken, but the music lives on. I try to present a brief history, a wayback machine if you will, into the artists, writers, lyrics and nostalgia of those wonderful days of free love, exploring the mind and smelling, eating, seeing, tasting and touching, indelibly burning memories for future enjoyment. It’s about the music and the era of album oriented rock. These are some of the Tales Vinyl Tells.

Episode 134: Bonnie's Story December 3, 2025 In a conversation with my friend Bonnie, she said how hearing a certain tune brought back memories of a time long ago. Who she was hanging out with, what music he was listening to (and the B-52s Rock Lobster was driving her crazy). He played it over and over, saturating his beloved partner. But she smiled as she said some of the things she hears on Tales Vinyl Tells stir up some good memories. So there it is, folks. The album rock of the 60s & 70s was some memorable stuff. Just think about the bell bottoms, the John Lennon-type glasses with purple lens, psychedelic headbands, pungent smells in the air covered by sandalwood or nag champa incense, beads hanging in doorways instead of doors. Oh sure, its all very nostalgic. Great songs fill this and every hour of Tales Vinyl Tells.   And thanks for listening today.  My email is talesvinyltells@gmail.com.  If you want to hear a Tales Vinyl Tells when it streams live on RadioFreeNashville.org, we do that at 5 PM central time Wednesdays.

Tune in! As Steve says, “and some meaningless banter.” But you already know that. Hello again and a big hi to you all. There’s a tradition here at TVT to try not to repeat any tunes. Unsuccessful I’ve been but if I do repeat, there’s a high quality put on a number. That’s why we start out with two from Traffic’s John Barleycorn Must Die LP. It is a very cool musical masterpiece. And you’ll also hear Link Wray, Tracy Nelson, John Kongos and more. The ever-so-popular JIMJAM today is CSNY’s Teach Your Children, soon, so get ready for TVT!

Episode 199: Fall Faves, Salute To Mark Volman September 19, 2025 Here’s another Tales Vinyl Tells for ya.  High, hello and welcome back to more of that great album rock of the 60s & 70s along with (sometimes) tunes on either sides of those decades. It’s almost fall here in middle Tennessee and Nashville.  Summer is winding down and it’s been one hot mothuh, and not in a good way.  The dogwoods have put out their little green pods which have grown into bigger red pods, and the season will change soon.  It’s on the way.  Today’s hour includes some songs about fall and there’s also my statement about the mess in these United States with a lying evil fascist in our White House.  They bricked over the Rose Garden and there’s so much gaudy fake gold nugget accents in the Oval they should offer barf bags at the door.  No more spray paint, ok??  And he wants a Nobel Prize and wants to name the Beloved Kennedy Center after himself or her.  What a flabby gas bag.  I can’t stand this guy, the Russian asset, ruining not running the US.  He’s the Master of Disaster, the dark lord (thinks he’s God, more like the antiChrist).  The first set goes out to Capt Bonespurs.  That’s my rant for today.  Mark Volman of the Turtles has entered the room next door, we remember him. and I’ve got a new one from Neil Young in this first set.  You’ll like this one! Now Let’s play some great Tales that Vinyls Tell. I’m Brian Hallgren.  Let’s spin some!

I'm a child of the 60s and I just love this music. It brings me back to sense excitement. The smells, the tastes, the feelings of joy, bliss and of course, some sadness as some of our friends and acquaintances didn't survive those times. My intention this hour and every hour of Tales Vinyl Tells is to lift you up. This hour you'll hear a band with Yes members that absolutely kills it.

Episode 126: Chris Hillman Salute! He's Been A Major Player In Rock And Country/Rock August 29, 2025 At the turntables today with some of that great album rock from the 60s & 70s. Those sweet vinyls can still sound as good today as they did 50+ years ago. Pardon the ashes and candlewax. But there aren't any greasy fingerprints because we hold them by the edge, with the edge in the palms of our hands. And there's really not any candlewax or ashes on them. They are sacred. I hope today you'll be delighted when we hear two from the Beau Brummels, a bit of the history of Chris Hillman with his many bands and all we can fit into this hour, including another new segment, the Jim Jam, later today. We'll play Lady Jane by the Stones together. I'm glad you're listening and hope you're digging the Tales Vinyl Tells. And thanks for listening today.  My email is talesvinyltells@gmail.com.  If you want to hear a Tales Vinyl Tells when it streams live on RadioFreeNashville.org, we do that at 5 PM central time Wednesdays. The program can also be played and downloaded anytime at podbean.com, iHeart podcasts, Player FM podcasts, Listen Notes podcasts and many other podcast places.
