It’s Bobfest this week on My Favorite Album, as ARIA-nominated singer-songwriter Harry Hookey joins host Jeremy Dylan to break down Bob Dylan’s classic 1975 album “Blood on the Tracks”.
They look at classic tracks “Tangled Up In Blue” and “Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts” and talk about Dylan’s commercial instincts, why he recorded the entire album twice, how these songs continue to evolve live, the best Dylan impressions and who should turn the album into a movie.
Harry closes the episode with a beautiful performance of “If You See Her, Say Hello”, complete with harmonica.
