It's Beatles time again for episode 27 of My Favorite Album, as our semi-monthly exploration of the Fab Four's catalogue lands on 1965's "Rubber Soul", with Californian born Nashville hit songwriter and soulful singer James House stepping into the portable pod booth.
Along the way, they break down classic tracks "Norwegian Wood", "You Won't See Me", "What Goes On", "The Word", "Nowhere Man" and "In My Life" and chat about James's visit to Abbey Road studios, the sentimentality of John Lennon, the efficiency of the album's song construction and Sean Connery's contribution to the Beatles mythos.
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

Hearts (out now!) and the feature

Penguins, in addition to many commercials and music
videos.
