Playlist for the Unpopular Music webcast for September 14, 2019

Today's webcasct took place in conditions similar to what I was expecting last week, and ended up fitting just as well. The program basically consists of two second hours, two long free-form sets which cover a lot of ground stylistically and chronologically. There's some 13th century music from Galicia, a tribute to an electro-acoustic pioneer, some Bach, some reggae-jazz, some lighthouse-jazz, new-wave and Afro-pop, plus a variety of jazz offerings.



See the playlist after the break...
About the archive recording - I forgot to take home a copy of the file from the BFR computer so there's no DJ commentary (maybe I'll edit it in later.) Seeing as I mostly programmed myself out of the program it's no big deal. Also, I flipped the last two songs as I thought Ashanti Afrika-Jah made for a less jarring transition out of the Cecil Taylor track.
