Welcome to episode 61 of Holly Jolly X’masu! In this episode, I’ll be discussing Kaoru Akimoto’s 1968 album, “Tenor Sax Mood White Christmas.”
I’ve collected a variety of things throughout my life. No matter what I’ve been collecting at the time, I’ve always had a handful of items that seemed just beyond my reach. In each case, I’ve managed to get at least a couple of those things I never thought I’d own. Sometimes, they turn out to be a huge disappointment. Luckily with my record collecting, each of the albums I’ve gotten that I never thought I’d own have lived up to or exceeded my expectations. Whether it’s been Kaoru Akimoto, Jun Fukamachi, Chiemi Eri, or any of the others that either seemed to rare or expensive for me to get, or that one collector or another had told me to not even bother looking for because, they assured me, I’d never be able to get—they’ve all turned out to be at least as good as I was hoping.
I hope you’ve found Kaoru Akimoto to be as satisfying an album as I did. It’s a wonderful album and one I’ve listened to more than a lot of the others, mainly because of how early I got it in my collecting. As I said in the episode, though, there are a lot of even more spectacular albums out there. I’ve only covered a handful of the best ones so far, and the best ones truly are yet to come. Join me back here next week when I discuss Niw! Records’ 2010 compilation, “We Wish You A Happy.” It’s a fun, more contemporary album and one you’re sure to enjoy.
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!

Happy Monday, Christmas Fanatics! And welcome to another Spooky Season edition of “Tis the Podcast“!
This week, the elves are joined by Jay Skipworth of “Film Strip Podcast” to discuss “Scream 2“! He and Anthony, both of whom have seen this movie many times, are on opposite sides of the spectrum when it comes to determining its quality – and both have #Thoughts – but where do Julia and Thom fall after watching it for the first time? (Especially after “Scream” pleasantly surprised both of them?) You’ll just have to tune in to find out!
As always when Jay joins us, this episode contains a plethora of movie trivia, film knowledge, and cinematic recommendations! As such, this is one deep dive into Sidney Prescott’s ongoing, tragic saga you want to be sure not to miss!
So, settle in with your Pumpkin Spice Lattes, relax, and enjoy! And, as always, thanks for your love and support, y’all!
What’s up, dudes? Danielle Clarke of No More Late Fees and I try to top that as we take a trip back to 1989 and talk “Teen Witch!” Louise discovers she’s a reincarnated witch and her powers will activate when she turns 16! Do her powers make her popular? Yup. Does she use her powers to make her crush dig her? Kinda. Does he take her to a murder house to make out? Definitely! So grab your amulet, put on your jean jacket, and hitch a ride with the cool kids and listen to this episode!
Time for another ghost story! This one is more sentimental than spooky. It’s The Corner Shop, in which a man buys a trinket in a curio shop that turns out to be worth a lot more than he bargained for. It’s part of this year’s series of ghost stories for Christmas from my friends at Biblioasis.

Christmas Alphabet is about Christmas, all year round, all in alphabetical order.
Every two weeks we look at Christmas music, history, celebrations and memories, starting with one letter of the alphabet. We have a world-wide view from a British perspective.
The podcast is written and hosted by Wayne Clarke – an author, broadcaster and Baptist pastor in Manchester, UK.
This time we faced the challenge of all things Christmas starting with the letter X.
We examine some exciting Xs, including Xmas – is it crossing Christ out of Christmas? There’s the X-Factor, which has redefined Christmas pop in the UK.
There are also some X songs including one by a Beatle and one Glam rock classic.
Please subscribe to this independent and podcast with no commercials. Please tell your friends about us and give us a positive review. Thanks for your support.
