Going back to the first airing of episode 30 on RadioFreeNashville.org and November 2022, we’ll play Jerry Lee Lewis and Springsteen’s Band at the opening of the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame, which, looking at recent inductees, should be remarqueed Hall of Music (Pop). Live at Leeds was regarded by some as one of the, if not THE best recorded live albums, along with The Allmans at Fillmore East. There’s some shakin’ going on there too. The entire hour is filled with a lot of the great LP cuts that made the 60s & 70s music so important.I want to say thank you to all the financial supporters of Tales Vinyl Tells.

Welcome back to this hour that we call Tales Vinyl Tells.  It’s your chance to hear some of the great album rock from the 60s and 70s mostly.  We’ve been doing these programs since late 2019 and have covered lots a ground.  You know and I know that we’ve just scratched the surface of recorded rock, so the new shows keep coming.  The reruns aren’t bad either.  They can be heard on your favorite podcast app.  Just search for Tales Vinyl Tells.
Today we’re going to say thanks and farewell to Marianne Faithfull, Jesse Colin Young of the Youngbloods and vibraphonist Roy Ayers Jr. The music under me is Roy Ayres with Herbie Mann at the 1969 Harlem summer of soul extravaganza with a song cowritten by Isaac Hayes. Those three have entered the room next door, as Henry Diltz coined the phrase. You also get some of the blues with Boz Scaggs and Duane Allman, together. So these are the stories that songwriters and artists want to convey to you. These are the Tales Vinyl Tells.

Today’s hour is a visit to the radio program of November 2022 on RadioFreeNashville.org and is a salute to the spirit of Nicolette Larson and her work as a successful solo artist and her work with The Doobies, Neil Young and many of the artists that Ted Templeman produced.I’m here for a short while longer near the Atlantic, and when I look way out on the horizon of that great ocean, first there is a mountain, then there is no mountain, then there is.
I’ve had two roommates from long ago recently pass away and I hope you will let people know how you feel about them, unless you don’t like them and in that case, do what’s right.

This is Tales Vinyl Tells.  And it’s another hour of some of the best rock tunes from albums of the 60s and 70s with some delicacies tossed in, just because. I’m saying hello from south florida, in Sandy Beach actually.  Today, we’re going to salute a few great artists who were in their late 20s in the late 60s. They helped us understand more, sometimes less about life and the purpose of life and ……if you were there, you may know by now, if you weren’t there, don’t worry too much about it.  This is our music, unmatched and unduplicated. I highly recommend listening on headphones, this program is, after all, recorded in stereo. Enjoy Judy Blue Eyes, Dylan and more on today’s Tales Vinyl Tells.  I’m glad you’re here, and here we go for more of those Tales.

Hey and Hello!  Welcome in for more of those Tales Vinyl Tells.  This is our weekly immersion into some great music that appeared on vinyls, especially during the 60s and 70s.  A lot of those albums are still playable today and are played and appreciated all over the world.  With a good cleaning of the disc surface and a whole bunch of shipping tape around the jacket and they’re sounding just as good as the day the shrink wrap was removed.  You did remove the shrink wrap, didn’t you? 
Ok, today we’re in our southern studio and we’re saluting two pretty well-heard, maybe not so well known, guys who have joined Petty, Harrison, Lennon, Crosby, Mayall and others who have entered the room next door. We’ve got Mike Pinera and Garth Hudson and their fine tunes today and many others. Glad you’re listening! I’m Brian Hallgren and these are the Tales Vinyl Tells.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.
