Episode 197: Celebration 5. What Has This/We Become?

Episode 197: Celebration 5. What Has This/We Become? August 14, 2025 Hello and a big hi to you and you and you and you hope you’re doing very well today. It’s another Tales Vinyl Tells! Today we’ve got some interesting music, ha ha, a lot of it from the 60s and 70s, and some of it is brand new music. From people who were making music in the 60s and 70s. So, I hope you’ll increase the volume a couple notches and enjoy these Tales Vinyl Tells. On the radio in Ames Iowa, Girdwood Alaska, Hoopa California on the reservation, Harpswell Maine, radio free Nashville, and San Antonio Texas, and on a whole bunch of podcast apps. Welcome aboard, this train’s a rolling.  I’m Brian Hallgren and here are today’s Tales Vinyl Tells about celebrating life and the things that turn us on. Like Spinal Tap with Elton John. The Doobie Brothers Lahaina is later in this hour and you can donate and learn more at peoplesfundofmaui.org Today’s playlist is below. And thanks for listening today.  My email is [e-mail].  If you want to hear a Tales Vinyl Tells when it streams live on RadioFreeNashville.org, we do that at 5 PM central time Wednesdays. The program can also be played and downloaded anytime at podbean.com, iHeart podcasts, Player FM podcasts, Listen Notes podcasts and many other podcast places.
