My Favorite Album with Jeremy Dylan


Feb 12, 2015

Did you watch the Grammys on Sunday and think "Wow, who was that bearded dude playing that awesome medley with Ed Sheeran?" Well this is the podcast for you.

This week, Andrew Hansen, the spiritually British but actually Australian member of Logie winners The Chaser and half the team behind "Dead Caesar" and "The Blow Parade", joins host Jeremy Dylan to express his love for ELO frontman Jeff Lynne's 1990 solo debut album "Armchair Theatre".

They ask (and answer) questions like - What made this album so out of step with its times? What was Lynne's role in The Traveling Wilburys? How is Lynne like Kevin Bloody Wilson? Is ten o'clock actually the correct time to rock?

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.
