Unpopular Music - October 28, 2024

 

This month we have a sort of new-additions-to-the-Unpopular-Music-Library program. A couple of Bandcamp binges, a couple of record fair picks and one from the back catalog to help us transition out of the ether to the sublimely ridiculous (you'll figure it out). Not terribly jazzy, but a number of hard to classify selections.
