#118 - Jess Ribeiro on Lou Reed ‘Transformer’

Jeremy Dylan April 3, 2018

Note: This episode was recorded before David Bowie passed away earlier this week.

‘Outback gothic’ singer-songwriter Jess Ribeiro invites me into her Melbourne lodgings to talk about Lou Reed’s seminal 1972 solo album ‘Transformer’.

How did she interpret the adult themes of the lyrics at age 7? How was androgyny and gender fluidity an influence on her artistic development as a kid? How did David Bowie and Mick Ronson’s producer relationship with Reed parallel Jess’s with Mick Harvey’s? And why did she decide not to record the song she wrote in tribute to Lou Reed?

#117 - Whitney Rose on Keith Whitley ‘Greatest Hits’

Jeremy Dylan April 3, 2018

Self-described ‘life-long advocate of simplicity’ and Canadian Americana singer/songwriter Whitney Rose joins me at a Mexican restaurant in Nashville to talk about 80s country icon Keith Whitley’s posthumously released Greatest Hits album.

Whitney reveals how her childhood love for Whitley helped foster her love for country music, why some of his songs make more emotional than logical sense, her passion for simplicity in life and music and how the album helped her bond with Mavericks frontman (and her producer) Raul Malo.

#115 - Phil Spector 'A Christmas Gift For You'

Jeremy Dylan April 3, 2018

For Christmas Eve, I dive into the melodramatic and perverse world of Phil Spector, and his seminal Christmas pop record ‘A Christmas Gift For You’, with my friend and sometimes producer Jaime Lewis and a large batch of eggnog.

Why did the album bomb on first release? Which 60s pop legend considers it the greatest album of all time? How does Spector’s sincere love of syrupy Christmas music track with his reprehensible real life behaviour? How does the album mash up innovative contemporary production with traditional holiday standards? What’s the history of the album’s lasting classic track, Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)? What’s the right amount of bourbon to put in eggnog? And isn’t Phil Spector Jewish anyway?

#114 - Xmas Music ft. Kristian Bush, Lee Brice, Corb Lund and Tim Byron

Jeremy Dylan April 3, 2018

For the first ever My Favorite Album Christmas special, I delve into the origins of the Christmas pop songs we all know today with musicologist and Sydney Morning Herald journalist Tim Byron - how did we go from religious music to songs about cold weather? Why were all the best Christmas songs written by Jewish guys? And why is an album of Christmas standards by Michael Buble outselling every album but Adele?

I also check in with friend of the show Kristian Bush (Sugarland) to talk about his new original Christmas song ‘Thinking About Drinking For Christmas’ - what Christmas music did he dig growing up? How do you write a great Christmas song? And what are the essential elements of Christmas music?

Plus Canadian Corb Lund on why he’ll never make a Christmas album and Lee Brice on why he will.

Come back for our next episode - an emotional deep dive on the greatest Christmas album of all time.

Jeremy Dylan April 3, 2018

Californian Americana singer/songwriter Sam Outlaw explains the roots of his passion for country music - Emmylou Harris’s classic 1975 country debut ‘Pieces of the Sky’.

#112 - Jason Isbell on The Rolling Stones ‘Sticky Fingers’

Jeremy Dylan April 3, 2018

One of today’s most renowned and skilful Americana singer-songwriters, Jason Isbell, talks about a classic record that helped inspire the genre - The Rolling Stones 1971 LP ‘Sticky Fingers’.

We talk about how growing up around Muscle Shoals Alabama got Jason into the record as a child, how the album shows the Stones maturing as a band as they entered the 70s, why the self-destructive lyrics of ‘Sway’ resonated with Jason as he endured his own struggles, what he misses about being in the Drive By Truckers, which song from ‘Southeastern’ was inspired by the Stones, how Jason, the Truckers and the Stones used their business acumen to assert creative control and whether authenticity matters.

Plus Jason reveals a special moment when he met Bruce Springsteen recently backstage at New Orleans Jazz Festival, and we argue over the merits of the ganjo and producer Dave Cobb’s wardrobe.

#107 - Julien Barbagallo (Tame Impala) on April March ‘Chrominance Decoder'

Jeremy Dylan March 27, 2018

Best known as the French drummer for West Australian psychedelic-disco-rockers Tame Impala, Julien Barbagallo is also a skilful singer/songwriter who creates his own form of what he calls ‘manicured pop’ music.

We talk about how April March’s 1999 album ‘Chrominance Decoder’ turned him from a Britpop fan into an appreciator of French creativity, how to appreciate music when you can’t understand the music, his love for intricate production and arrangements, why he moved to Melbourne but still writes about France, why Tame Impala’s “Currents” is such a unique and terrific album, how much freedom he has to be creative with the drum parts Kevin Parker wrote and how he got the rarest of all things - an apology from Oasis.

#100 - Does the album have a future?

Jeremy Dylan March 27, 2018

For the special 100th episode extravaganza of ‘My Favorite Album’, I go from Sydney to Nashville to Melbourne, speaking to artists, journalists, producers and label execs to find out the answer to a question dear to my heart - 'Does the album have a future?’

We hear from Kacey Musgraves on why she plans to keep making albums, Neil Finn on why he might not, Davey Lane on why he’s making singles solo and LPs with You Am I. Universal Music’s Mike Taylor explains why the industry is built around the existence of the album and Rice is Nice Records’ Julia Wilson talks Cassette Store Day and other ways to measure album successes. Jim DeRogatis (Sound Opinions) explains why the album continues to be relevant to young music fans, Peter Cooper (Country Music Hall of Fame) weighs in on whether different genres put more emphasis on singles vs. albums and Americana producer of the moment Dave Cobb sticks up for selfishness.

#99 - Corb Lund on Marty Robbins ‘Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs'

Jeremy Dylan March 27, 2018

Canada’s finest exponent of both kinds of music, punk rocker turned idiosyncratic Americana singer-songwriter Corb Lund, joins me in an Irish pub to talk his favorite album, the 1959 Western classic ‘Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs’ by Marty Robbins.

Corb talks about how he discovered the album as a child, the balance between reverence of the past and subversive innovation in roots music, how Marty Robbins’ mainstream success was linked to John Wayne, which of his songs have been directly inspired by Marty Robbins, how he comes up with album titles and how working with producer Dave Cobb on his latest album 'Things That Can’t Be Undone’ changed his approach in the studio.

Our next podcast is the massive 100TH EPISODE SPECIAL! Look out for something a little different.
