To celebrate 25 episodes of My Favorite Album, guest host Danny Yau puts regular host Jeremy Dylan into the hot seat for a super-sized chat about 1969’s classic Beatles masterpiece - Abbey Road.
Along the way, they break down classic songs “Come Together” (and the surrounding lawsuit), “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer”, “Oh! Darling”, “Something”, “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” and the side two medley, Jeremy tells the McCartney-centric sequel to his Hyde Park story (hear part one in episode 21 with Neil Finn), they look at how this album has influenced Lana Del Rey and why “The End” was the perfect finish for the band.
My Favorite Album is a podcast unpacking the great works of pop music. Each episode features a different songwriter or musician discussing their favorite album of all time - their history with it, the making of the album, individual songs and the album’s influence on their own music.
Jeremy Dylan is a filmmaker from Sydney, Australia who has worked in the music industry since 2007. He directed the the feature music documentary Jim Lauderdale: The King of Broken Hearts (out now!) and the feature film Benjamin Sniddlegrass and the Cauldron of Penguins, in addition to many commercials and music videos.
