Contents
Hana Kuyō–Sanbyaku Rokujū Go Nichi Koi Moyō is a concept album. Each of the twelve songs in the album represents a month of a year. In addition, most songs depict scenes of a particular place in Japan while some are not specific about its location.
Ishikawa’s signature song "Tsugaru Kaikyō Fuyugeshiki" originally appeared as the song representing the month of December in this album. Prior to the release of this album, Ishikawa sang "Tsugaru Kaikyō Fuyugeshiki" on stage at her recital in Osaka. This first presentation of the song received critical acclaim, which led to the song’s subsequent release as a single in the following year.
The album was originally released in 30cm LP format. It was reprinted in 12 cm CD format in 1993 by Nippon Columbia.
