Description
Writer/producer Blake Masters (Falling Water, 2 Guns, Brotherhood) steps out of his edit suite to talk about the Drive By-Truckers 2004 masterwork 'the Dirty South'. We talk about way the album plays to the strengths of the bands three songwriters - Patterson Hood, Mike Cooley and Jason Isbell, the continuing resonance of the Truckers work post-Trump, how they played against the stereotypes of a Southern Rock band, writing empathetic songs about 'bad guys' and how rock music is used in TV shows. Plus Blake and I hatch plans for a TV series based on the album. 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, journalist and photographer 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.
