Playlist for the Unpopular Music Webcast for February 25, 2017

We have a typically jazzy first hour, followed by a somewhat loose collection of odds and ends (though still somewhat jazzy) for the second. Technical difficulties around the 45 minute mark leave me a bit frazzled (I mean, "James Moody on guitar"), but we, and the BFR computer generally recover. (Although if I had to do it over again, I would have put the Grachan Moncur tune at the top of the second hour (and figured out how to correctly pronounce his first name))



Also, a rare joint appearance by Meredith and Thelonious Monk (no relation).


See the playlist after the break...

The archive is a revised version, slightly different than what's below.The theme and the DJ breaks are missing, as are the two tracks added on the fly (Dizzy and Brian Blade), the Grachan Moncur track is at the top of the last set with Rocks and Waves making a better segue into Catherine Braslavsky.
