Playlist for the Unpopular Music webcast for March 23, 2019

A variety show for you today for the first Saturday in spring. We start with a jazzy set on springtime themes. Followed by a short set from a couple of Unpopular Music All-Stars. The second hour brings us some rockin' Rite of Spring variations, some volcano atmosphere, a long whisper-to-a-scream track, heavy metal goes classical and a few other odds and ends.
