If Music Could Talk

If Music Could Talk – Nov 21 2021 – Japanese Kayōkyoku (70s 80s pop songs) from 45s.. and more!

Sun, Nov 21, 2021

Tune in tonight from 7-9pm for a special selection of Kayōkyoku from the 70s and 80s… i found this stack of records years ago, and recently gained a new appreciation for the genre that would go on to become modern J-Pop — it’s cool, it’s fun, it’s different… i’ll play as many of these 45s as we can bear to listen to in one sitting, tonight on If Music Could Talk – and i’ll probably throw in a bunch of other stuff too to balance out the set..
