Looking for Christmas gift ideas? This week on the podcast, host Jeremy Dylan is joined by legendary Melbourne singer-songwriter-producer Ross Ryan (I Am Pegasus) to make the case for Jackson Browne’s seminal 1974 album “Late for the Sky”.
They breakdown classic songs “Late for the Sky”, “For A Dancer” and “Fountain of Sorrow” and along the way, they chat about Browne’s carefully crafted lyrics, mopeyness vs. optimism, the meaning of the album cover and writing about love in your twenties.
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.
