I never heard him sing live, unfortunately. But I do remember sitting with a friend, with one of his CDs on in the background, as we chatted and drank late one night. Then Lloyd's live version of 'Tam Lin' came on. After a while we became aware that the conversation had stopped, and both of us were completely transfixed by his telling of the tale. Not a word was spoken for ten minutes or so. The first thing I said in the ensuing silence was: "How the f*** did he do that??!"
