“This career essentially chased me down while I was on the spoken-word scene in New York. I kept hearing that my delivery of my poetry - which was very personal and cathartic at the time- was very moving to folks. People thought that I was an actress because of my delivery, when I was just dropping into the work and really pouring out my soul.” PeopleSoulMovingCareersNew YorkSceneFolksHearingActressesMy SoulDroppingDeliveryPouringSpoken WordCatharticVery Moving Author:Sonja Sohn
“Sixties folk rock was my original muse and the folk audience-people who listen to music off the beaten track-fostered my career.

“One kid said to me, he said, Mr. Lloyd, we really owe you. And I explained to him, man, you owe me absolutely nothing. I said, whatever kind of career I had, it has served me well, but you do owe some people. And the people you owe are the folks who are going to come behind you. It's incumbent upon each watch — when you play your 10, 11 years and you're in your group — when you leave, I truly hope that you've done all you can possibly do to leave it a better place for the folks who come behind you.” PeopleMenYearsWellsKindSaidDonePlayKidsBehindsCareersWatchesGroupsFolksBetter PlaceBehind YouAbsolutely NothingIncumbents Author:Earl Lloyd
