Episode 199: Fall Faves, Salute to Mark Volman
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!

Episode 85: Macon and Capricorn Records, Tommy Talton salute and Who'll Stop the Rain JimJam
Today’s show is a replay from February 2024, bringing some of the great album rock of the 60s and 70s right to your ears and to your mind. 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. There's Cold Blood with Lydia Pence and salutes to Tommy Talton of Cowboy and Gregg Allman Band, adding some ear-joy from Melanie Safka who also entered the room next door recently. Today’s playlist is below.

Episode 126: Chris Hillman Salute! He's been a major player in rock and country/rock
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.

Episode 8: Have you ever seen the firefall in Yosemite or been in the Hall of the mountain king?
This is a replay of a very early show that ran on RadioFreeNashville in 2023, though it was about the 45th or so overall. And I say hello to you and wonder how you’re doing in this crazy time? I’m taking care, staying well and being nice. This heat is ridiculous. I know that fall will do just that and soon. One antidote is digging some cool tunes from the 60s and 70s and this one has Quicksilver Messenger Service, Firefall, SRC and a big dose from SuperSession with Mike Bloomfield, Stephen Stills and the totally creative Al Kooper. Great tune from them. I’m glad that you’re here planning on listening to this episode and I’d really like to know where you are. My email is TalesVinylTells@gmail.com.
