30 Day Music Challenge Day 05 – A Song That Reminds You Of Someone

It was the summer of 1991/2, and we had set out for a night of cruising around town.  For reasons that made sense at the time, we decided to see where Harlem Avenue had its southern most ending.  We ended up in Kankakee and were getting ready to start heading back home when Walking In Memphis came on the radio.  We were on 57 heading north when Courtney said “Mike, are you crying?”  His grandpa had died somewhat recently (or not at all) and the song brought something up.  Which, looking back, is somewhat touching.  At the time, in a car filled with high schoolers, it was brought up frequently and not in a good way.
