Age Quote by Charles Lloyd
“I was born in Memphis. There was music all around me, really deep and special music. I heard all these great masters at a young age.There was a great genius in my town, Phineas Newborn, who is one of the greatest pianists ever on the planet. He took me under his wings at about 9 and he put me on the right track.”
![“I was always drawn to the roots music, bluegrass, blues, early rock - Sun Records, Elvis [Presley]. And I still love that music to this day. Memphis never gets the credit. It's much more musically rich than Nashville ever will be. Nashville manufactured that hokey-hillbilly image way back.” quote by Steve Young](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/ad8/steve-young-2710_bluegrass_i-was-always-drawn-to-the-roots-music-bl_1880523.jpg)
![“[Jazz] is a music of freedom and wonder. It's our indigenous art form, and I'm still blessed to travel around the world and people lay out the carpet for us, so it's quite touching.” quote by Charles Lloyd](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/120/charles-lloyd-37237_around-the-world_jazz-is-a-music-of-freedom-and-wonder-it_2179188.jpg)
