by NPR Staff
The singer-songwriter behind the hit "Walking in Memphis" was only 11 years old in 1970, but music from that year left a significant impression on him.

The cowboy and member of the Crow nation is on a 500-mile horseback trip, halfway across the state, handing out books to get people to "move along in thought."
