Comment:

Not a cassette, but rather a mix in two parts that I've been working on for a friend (who's pretty far away at the moment) for a little while - each part is supposed to be relaxing and / or reassuring, but in a different way. The title is that of a Ballboy song, and played no small part in inspiring a lot of the choices for the mix, and the picture is part of the usual "walking route" in our university town which we used to take and put the world to rights in the process...

superb! That "Walk" wouldn't be up university avenue or around Byres Rd would it?

Ah, I love both places - afraid this is actually near The Scores in St Andrews, but I'd quite happily take a walk along Byres Road too! :)
