Episode 97: Gershwin Prize Winner! Winner, Winner, Got A Spinner!

Episode 97: Gershwin Prize Winner! Winner, Winner, Got A Spinner! March 30, 2026 From May 2024: The aging process on humans is real. What we do and don’t 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 I’m 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 wasn’t 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 [email protected]. There are many ways to hear these great tunes: Live on RadioFreeNashville.org Wednesdays at 5 pm Central time, all the podcasts of the radio program(many times extended versions) can be listened to anytime, anywhere at StudioMillsWellness.com/tales-vinyl-tells, on podbean.com, iHeart podcasts, Player FM podcasts, Listen Notes podcasts and many other podcast places.
