7. Sam Hawksley on Shawn Colvin "A Few Small Repairs"
On the seventh episode of My Favorite Album, host Jeremy Dylan is joined by singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer Sam Hawksley (Adam Brand, The Sunny Cowgirls) to discuss Shawn Colvin's Grammy-winning 1996 breakthrough album "A Few Small Repairs".
Along the way, they break down classic tracks "Sunny Came Home", "Wichita Skyline" and "If I Were Brave", wonder whether the album should be co-credited to John Leventhal, getting personal through abstraction and why you should be afraid if Sam likes your music.
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.
