Playlist for the Unpopular Music webcast for January 19, 2019

A blend of exuberance and more mellow and/or serious tones for you this week (not that these are mutually exclusive categories.) We pay tribute to the recently departed Joseph Jarman Check out this essay by Howard Mandel for how all-encompasing his work, and that of his many associates, was. Click through even just to see how Jarman has the misfortune to have once been the subject of a famous photograph, the cover of his first album, which has been used to identify him for the last fifty years or so. One could have worse misfortunes. Therefore, I'm using it, too
