Playlist for the Unpopular Music webcast for February 9, 2019

Today we bring you a mostly jazzy variety show. Unintentionally featuring a number of duets. There's also a couple of historic jazz reissues from recent months, dramatic rearrangements of both Mozart and Marvin Gaye, and a remembrance of the late baritone Sanford Sylvan.
