Playlist for the Unpopular Music Webcast for December 15, 2018

Music for a balmy mid-December afternoon (but not, you know, late-December - there's plenty of that music elsewhere.) There's a bunch of upbeat jazz in the first hour. I inadvertently follow the Verve Records rule and make the second song a ballad. The second more freeform hour gets a bit more contemplative before building back up.
