Playlist for the Unpopular Music Webcast for March 24, 2018

Today's first hour kind of, but not completely jazzy, a little bit arbitrary, but none-the-less enjoyable. (I'm down on how it was put together, not how it came out) The second features some African influenced selections, followed by our traditional Stravinsky-channeling invocation of spring. The two halves of the second hour developed separately, and I was delighted while poking around the internet for Rite of Spring related material to find a track to join them.
