Tales Vinyl Tells-”stories record albums convey”

Tales Vinyl Tells is my podcast that evolved into my radio show that airs weekly on RadioFreeNashville. I had quite a few LPs that I collected in the late 60s and 70s and I always knew the magic of the albums of that era of album-oriented rock brought back memories of times, people, smells, tastes and feelings. I hope it does for you too. Back-stories and album liner notes tie the tunes together. I’m your host Brian Hallgren and you should hear the Tales Vinyl Tells!

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.
