Episode 137: Nostalgia: "A Sentimental Longing Or Wistful Affection.... April 3, 2024 …for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations”. Yeh man! Like the 60s & 70s. Playing for change remakes songs with musicians from all over the world with sometimes odd instruments, did you enjoy Joy of Cooking? Not the book, but the band. They’re here with a few nostalgic pieces just for you and your silly nostalgia. I’m in the present and love a lot of things about the past. The Doors and Zeppelin on windowpane. Allmans and shrooms. I do hope these tunes today will make ..read more

Episode 136: The Vince Playlist April 3, 2024 My friend, Vince, went in for heart surgery and I made sure to see him beforehand and wish him the best. That was the last time I saw him. They couldn't fix his heart valve. So our only choice was to mourn. Luckily, before all this, Vince told me that he had all the Tales Vinyl Tells episodes up to that time loaded into his car and he listened to them when he needed some good music that made him feel more alive. I asked him what some of his favorite tunes and artists were. He made a list of 10 songs or so and gave a little comment about pretty much ..read more

Episode 134: How Long Has It Been Since You've Heard These? Ever? March 16, 2024 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-52’s 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, t ..read more

Episode 130: Another Hour Of Great Tunes From The 60s & 70s (As I Say, "Mostly") February 15, 2024 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.
