I was going to write and make this comment.  I notice it very much, and am an 
ardent opponent of shuffling.  It seems very jarring.

But yes, we learn those associations strongly, even without trying.

Another phenomenon is the expectation that one song will follow another on an 
album (or CD).
Playing something on shuffle will sometimes create surprises when the expected 
sequence is violated.

Not all memories are encoded intentionally!  :-)
