Looking for ideas on a dark rye based on Jewish sour rye

Back in the late 60's and early to mid 70's, my father and I would stand outside for up to an hour to get this marvelous bread straight from the trays. These were very dark but not closed grained. I know they used a fermented sour starter and it took days from start to finish.

 

In terms of color this is very close but otherwise, like the bread I linked to. Molasses? Maybe but after almost 40 years the exact chewy texture, taste and smell is something I don't remember precisely.

 

Ideas?
