Description
Today it's My Favorite ALbum, as Melbourne singer-songwriter Al Matcott is bringing it all back to Bob Dylan and his underrated (?) 1978 album 'Street Legal'. We talk about how he found an emotional connection with the album around his mother's passing, how it inspired him to seek out a tarot reading, how the album bridges Dylan's confessional and Christian periods, which song is like a 'seedy bar but Jesus is hanging out there', speculate about Springsteen's influence on the album's sound, the curse of 80s production, Al tries to get himself tarred and feathered by the MFA audience, Dylan's influence on Ginuwine, Dylan's rotating schticks, whether Dylan invented Americana music, what Dylan's best riff is, pitch a sequel to Todd Haynes 'I'm Not There' and speculate about James Mangold's upcoming Dylan film starring Timothée Chalamet.
