Replaying from March 2025. Welcome back to this hour that we call Tales Vinyl Tells. It’s your chance to hear some of the great album rock from the 60s and 70s mostly. We’ve been doing these programs since late 2019 and have covered lots a ground. You know and I know that we’ve just scratched the surface of recorded rock, so the new shows keep coming. The reruns aren’t bad either. They can be heard on your favorite podcast app. Just search for Tales Vinyl Tells.
Today we’re going to say thanks and farewell to Marianne Faithfull, Jesse Colin Young of the Youngbloods and vibraphonist Roy Ayers Jr. The music under me is Roy Ayres with Herbie Mann at the 1969 Harlem summer of soul extravaganza with a song cowritten by Isaac Hayes. Those three have entered the room next door, as Henry Diltz coined the phrase. You also get some of the blues with Boz Scaggs and Duane Allman, together. So these are the stories that songwriters and artists want to convey to you. These are the Tales Vinyl Tells.
