Episode 124: Hiroko Williams' "My Room For Christmas"

Welcome to episode 124 of Holly Jolly X'masu! In this episode, I talk about Hiroko Williams’ 2016 album, “My Room For Christmas.”

I hope you enjoyed “My Room For Christmas” as much as I do. It’s such a fantastic album, and Hiroko Williams is absolutely amazing. She’s had a fascinating career, and learning about it really kept me engaged while working on this episode.

Be sure to listen in next month for my trio of episodes about the God of Electric Guitar, Takeshi Terauchi. I’ll start out with his 1960s Christmas EP’s, then talk about his 1979 album, “Let’s Go! Terry X’mas,” and finish up with his 1983 album, “Electric Merry Christmas.” He’s truly a legend in Japan and you’re sure to enjoy his music.

As always, any feedback on this episode would be appreciated. If have any suggestions, or if you’d like to recommend a song or album for a future episode, drop me a line and let me know.

Remember, I've added a button to my Ko-fi page. If you'd like to support me one cup of coffee at a time, a donation is only $3. I’ve also opened a Redbubble store. I only have a couple designs up, but keep an eye on it as I’ll be trying to add more. Half of any proceeds or donations received will be donated to support the people of Ukraine, while the rest will be used to purchase new Japanese Christmas music to review for future episodes. You can also find me on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. And if you get a chance, leave me a review on iTunes. Thanks!
