About 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!

Episode 76: From Jan 7, 2023: Christine McVie Salute
September 28, 2026
Looks like we made it to a new year. I was beginning to wonder. Last year had some good, some sad but the best thing is that is ended. I had a Covid Christmas, lost a couple really good people, like my 30 year old niece, my 62 year old friend, had a melanoma on my head and it was just a weird year. I did though get my chance to bring Tales Vinyl Tells to RadioFreeNashville and the world. Now a chance to regain momentum.
Here we have a salute to Christine McVie and her time in public performance. She had a distinctive voice, you could probably tell the songs she penned and she brought life to the rock world. She is missed. One tune she did in her time with Chicken Shack in 1968 is here and I think you’ll recognize it. All in all, here’s some great music to kick the year off with.
My goal is to explore the vinyl LPs of the 60s & 70s, with some exceptions, and provide some backstories and liner notes of some of the best album rock of the ages.Since December 2019, there now over 200 hour-long episodes to enjoy with minimal repeats. Oh sure, there are some and that's because those are some great ones.Thanks for listening today. My email is talesvinyltells@gmail.com.

September 14, 2026
This was episode 64 from about this time in 2022. It took some editing to prepare it for radio re-broadcast on stations around the country. They allow about 58 minutes. Hope you enjoy this one!
We start today with one of the greatest guitarists of our time who had an early death by wheels, a multi-award winning female Canadian artist who sold over 100 million albums that we haven’t played but once before here, Phoenix and more. As fall comes to us, I’m so glad. Maybe the heat will now only come from the smoking’ LP cuts from the 60s and 70s I play. Of course, if you need heat in your house by all means turn it on.
You can listen live at 5 central time around Nashville at 103.7 and 107.1 FM, you can tell Alexa, "Alexa, play radio free Nashville" after teaching her the radio free Nashville online skill, and you can stream it live at RadioFreeNashville.org.
