The ’60s and ’70s album rock moved the nation during the early rock n roll times, the British Invasion, Viet Nam, The Cold War, The Iron Curtain. DC5, Buddy Holly, Beatles, Cream, Zeppelin, Janis, songwriters like Elton and Bernie, John and Paul, Simon and Garfunkel....the list goes on. It rocked through the life and times of the world and it made us feel and helped us numb out. Fifty years later, the albums remain, a little scratched, some stained or even broken, but the music lives on. I try to present a brief history, a wayback machine if you will, into the artists, writers, lyrics and nostalgia of those wonderful days of free love, exploring the mind and smelling, eating, seeing, tasting and touching, indelibly burning memories for future enjoyment. It’s about the music and the era of album oriented rock. These are some of the Tales Vinyl Tells.

Episode 97: Gershwin Prize Winner
July 6, 2025
And the Gershwin Prize goes to …….The aging process on humans is real. What we do and dont do may play a big part in how that process affects us or not. The vinyl LPs of that era and the new ones being purchased today will last a lot longer than the color in our hair or our smooth and youthful skin. All Im saying is that the age of rock is so wide and varied, from Elvis to Zappa, we have a lot of ground to cover in these short one-hour shows. And, who knows, maybe listening to the music of our youth may give a moment in time when we can enjoy those times or not. Admit it, it wasnt all bad. If you have some input, like my friend, Puh-mella did, let me know your taste in music, who/what/when. Email all your comments to me at TalesVinylTells@gmail.com. The podcasts are all available at http://www.studiomillswellness.com/tales-vinyl-tells, on Apple podcasts, podbean.com and a whole bunch of good podcast apps.
