I was listening to the new Eagles album on the way to work the other day. I walked through the park with the sounds making me feel like I was in sunny California as opposed to the biting London chill. The songs felt like I'd known them as well as their classics which I wasn't expecting at all, when bands get back together after a time the results are usually somewhat wanting. It also made a change hearing summery American tunes on the way to work which is when I usually hear cold British songs (that I adore) to take me to my cold British office (that I loathe).
So, I was thinking I might start a group about taking albums for walks, ones you usually wouldn't. There could be a "National Take an Album For a Walk Day" How about walking along a calm river listening to drum and bass or a busy street listening to chill out. That was a bit rubbish but I'm a do it anyway.
I like walking, I just go where my feet take me and I always end up somewhere with memories and those memories are always soundtracked.
