Who says a song has to have words? Okay, you in the back, I hear you. But the rest of you must agree, then, for pure contemplative walking and jogging, nothing beats a soulful piano riff or flute trill or guitar lick or plucky little banjo pluck or soaring string serenade. This set is almost entirely for walking; the tempo is decidedly slow. So save it for a long, lonely stroll in the hills or along the shore when you want to fine-tune your inner vibes.
