• Episode 166:New Version Of An Old One
    Nov 21 2024

    Episode 166:New Version Of An Old One November 20, 2024 I hope you’re well and ready for some music from a lot of West Coast bands today. You know, we dig into these great albums of the 60s and 70s and some of you younger listeners may not have been on the Earth at that time. You know, just a little gleam in your daddy’s eyes? So hello to you younger listeners today . A lot of us were brought up listening to this music that we’re gonna hear today and some of us are getting to hear it another time. If it’s new to you, just dig it! I like to play many album cuts of mostly familiar songs but I do like to throw in some new songs or songs that we really don’t hear that much back in the day. Oh! I never thought I’d use that phrase “back in the day“but there it is. We’re going to hear from Crosby Stills Nash and Young, a Monkee, yes they can be trained, Nashville’s Orleans and quite a number more. As always, I want to thank all the supporters of this program who monthly contribute through Patron.podbean.com/talesvinyltellssupport. I bow to you, thank you and invite everyone to check out how you can show your love for this awesome music of the hippie generation, whether you were there or just get down with the albums of that time. Remember that Tales Vinyl Tells can be streamed as it happens on RadioFreeNashville.org Wednesdays at 5 Pm Central time and all the episodes are listenable and downloadable on your favorite podcast app (I say probably), just don’t try Spotify. They say it doesn’t allow them to pay their millionth of a cent royalty to artists and I get that. So whatever they say, they remove it so you’ll just have to listen elsewhere. Like Podbean.com or PlayerFM or maybe even StudioMillsWellness.com/tales-vinyl-tells. Take your pick or pick your take. Rock on, take care, stay well and be nice. BH

  • TVT Episode 165: Survived Another Election
    Nov 17 2024
    Episode 165: Survived Another Election November 14, 2024 We are back again with another expedition into that great album rock of the 60s & 70s here on Tales Vinyl Tells. This expedition has been going on for quite a while now, the podcast version since December 2019. The radio version premiered in the spring of 2022. I vaguely remember the evenings during this music’s time when we’d visit a friend in our apartment complex and we’d burn some while putting on some Carole King or James Taylor or Stones or better yet, Sgt Pepper’s. The smell of incense, a lot of times, could mask the weed aroma and I played the psychedelic Smell of Incense from the West Coast Pop Art Experiment Band along with Graham Nash, some jazzy numbers from Seals and Crofts and Victor Wooten, and the closer is a very rocky one from The Rascals that is really good. Hope you enjoy all that! Show your love for the great album rock of the 60s and 70s by becoming a monthly contributor to Tales Vinyl Tells. Learn more at patron.podbean.com/talesvinyltellssupport. Thank you so much, especially you who already contribute monthly and I hope you feel really good supporting this effort to enjoy what I think is the best creative music of this generation. You can stream Tales Vinyl Tells Wednesdays at five central time on Radiofreenashville.org. And all of the episodes are free and downloadable on many podcast apps and of course at studiomillswellness.com/tales-vinyl-tells. Dig this hour!

    Nov 10 2024
    Episode 164: Salute To Steve Winwood, Including Dave Mason, Manassas, Marc Cohn Etc November 9, 2024 The version that was heard on the live stream Wednesday evening at 5PM on RadioFreeNashville.org was an edited replay of TVT #20, which was diggable August of 2020. I realized while listening to it that I didn’t play anything by the supergroup Blind Faith so that’s one that’s coming soon. Hope you’ll enjoy this, the original #20…again. There’s Supersession music and Heart as well as the above. Here’s the full length episode. I could dig your support if you want to help with the costs of running a weekly radio show and podcast.

  • Episode 162: Saluting Kristofferson, Lesh, Sergio, John David
    Nov 2 2024
    Episode 162: Saluting Kristofferson, Lesh, Sergio, John David October 29, 2024 The hourglass is filling with sand. I’ve been working on this one over the past couple weeks and got the word that Phil Lesh passed, I knew that I needed to finish up and get the salutes ready. These four had unique lives and affected millions around the world, like many of the artists from the 60s & 70s did. This hour is a major tease. Do you have a story or memory of any of these artists that you might want to share? A Dead concert maybe? Or some piece of trivia? My email is TalesVinylTells@gmail.com. In case you’ve let it slip your mind, you can hear the initial radio show Wednesdays at 5 PM central time on RadioFreeNashville.org or on an actual radio at 103.7 in Nashville. The stream is more dependable and worldwide. If you’d like to help pay this program’s bills, I welcome your sustaining monthly support. $5, 10, 25 a month helps so much. The details are at Patron.podbean.com/talesvinyltellssupport. Thank you! All TVT episodes are available FREE to listen to and FREE to download on your favorite podcast app except Spotify (their loss) and at StudioMillsWellness.com/tales-vinyl-tells, our first host. Thank you, Linda!

  • Episode 163: The Adventure Began!
    Oct 26 2024
    Episode 163: The Adventure Began! October 26, 2024 This episode reflects back on the beginning, episode 1, that premiered in the winter of 2019. 38 Episodes later, I realize how many new beginnings we can have in a lifetime. Repeats, reruns, whatever you want to call it, we get a chance to do things differently, over and over again. Lotta woo woo there, I know. I’m preparing for a radio gig for Tales Vinyl Tales (hoping for the best) and I find no better place to get ideas than the beginning, the past. With some additions and subtractions, this episode has Moody Blues, Bonnie Raitt, Spirit and more. I feel it’s a good ‘un. If you’d like to support this program financially and help me continue to bring this great music to the airwaves and www, learn more at Patron.podbean.com/talesvinyltellssupport. Thank you so much! Listen to all episodes of Tales Vinyl Tells all the way back to December 2019 on your favorite podcast app and of course, our flagship, StudioMillsWellness.com/tales-vinyl-tells.

    Episode 161: Pt 5 Of The 7 Continent World Tour October 20, 2024 Our World Tour winds down today with a visit to Antarctica and a tune about the Lost Continent.

  • Episode 160: Bowie, Fripp, Crusaders, Heroes, Friends And Being Famous
    Oct 13 2024
    We are probably all, in my opinion anyway, a friend, maybe even a hero to someone but we can’t all be famous. And that may well be a good thing. In the meanwhile, we can keep the fires burning, the love-light burning and the circle turning. Maybe even keep the desires yearning. Here are some memory-joggers, just some of the great music we had and heard on LP from the 60s and 70s. If you want to support this podcast, my story is at patron.podbean.com/talesvinyltellssupport. Thanks for listening and contributing.

  • Episode 159: Pt 4 7 Continent Tour
    Oct 5 2024
    I want to begin this podcast teaser with a plea for your generous donation to my good friend, Jessica, who lost her home in the Asheville, NC flood. Her gofundme page (link below) tells some of her story. The trauma, heartbreak and sadness of that weather event can leave marks on a person forever. If you can, I'd rather you donate to her than me and see how good that feels. When you donate, you'll be able to keep up with the power of the human spirit when updates are posted and see what love can do! Thanking you, in advance. https://gofund.me/10ebc396 “ I believe ‘21’s gonna be a good year”. That’s where we started this episode as we continued our World Tour 2020 and led into 2021. Today we recreate this program as we travel to Asia with Asia and Lorde, then to the land down under with one of Australia’s national anthems and Little River Band, not to mention an old one about a kangaroo, which was on episode 26 but didn’t have time for it here. All our podcasts are recorded and uploaded in stereo, so if you can, listen on stereo equipment. You’ll get some clicks and pops, but full effect. Enjoy! And have a great safe year. You can financially support this podcast and be greatly appreciated by going to Patron.podbean.com/talesvinyltellssupport and pledge as little as $5 a month, which will help pay the bills and keep the lights on. Thank you for supporting the great music of the 60s and 70s, mostly, and things that are deemed appropriate. Tales Vinyl Tells has been alive since December 2019. We survived Covid and snow…and plan on keeping on. Hear the show as it airs on RadioFreeNashville.org Wednesdays at 5 central time and hear all the craziness back to episode 1 on your favorite podcast app, Podbean.com, iHeart, PlayerFM and most of all at StudioMillsWellness.com/tales-vinyl-tells, where it all began. Thanks for listening!
