Welcome to episode 111 of Holly Jolly X'masu! In this episode, I talk about the 2004 compilation, “Christmas For Anyone?”

Various Artists – Christmas For Anyone? – 2004

I hope you enjoyed “Christmas For Anyone?” I’d say that it’s another of those unassuming albums loaded with a stellar lineup of lesser-known musicians, but that cover is anything other than unassuming. It’s a great collection, though, and one I’d already listened to multiple times before starting on this episode.

Various Artists – Christmas For Anyone? – Back

Join me back here next week for an album I bought way back in the early days of my collecting. It’s one I’m excited to share, “Christmas Dance Party” by the Tokyo Cuban Boys, from 1966. It’s a Latin-tinged Mood Kayo album, and it’s likely one of the best things you’ll hear all month.

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!
