Hosono House
Hosono House is the debut solo album of Japanese musician Haruomi Hosono, released on May 25, 1973.
Besides Hosono, this album also features performances by the group "Caramel Mama" (featuring Hosono's fellow Happy End member Shigeru Suzuki). Hosono wanted to emulate The Band's Music from Big Pink and James Taylor's One Man Dog. With this album, recording equipment technology had evolved enough for domestic recordings of good quality to be feasible, and going to the center of the city to reach a recording studio was somewhat inconvenient. The album was recorded for five hours every afternoon in a 144 square feet (13.4 m2) large bedroom in Hosono's residence in Sayama, Japan with a 16-track mixing console in his living room. The instruments were recorded unprocessed from the amplifiers in a small room, leading to the album's unique sound.
All tracks are written by Haruomi Hosono, except "Owari no Kisetsu", with music by Hosono and lyrics by Mondo Uno ('Mondo Uno' is an alias of Hosono); "Fuyu Koe" & "Jūsho Futei Mushoku Teishūnyū", written by Hosono with horns arranged by Kinji Yoshino and "Party", with music by Hosono and lyrics by Ryōko Suzuki & Yasushi Nakayama.
Harry Styles explained how he came up with the title for his 2022 album Harry's House: "The album is named after Haruomi Hosono, he had an album in the '70s called Hosono's House, and I spent that chunk in Japan; I heard that record and I was like 'I love that.[...] It'd be really fun to make a record called Harry's House'."
