The poetic stroll revisits in a very intimate way a repertoire that mixes Ellington, Gershswin, Strayhorn, the Beach Boys and Dylan, with personal compositions, including a suite in memory of his great-grandmother, sold to a slave trader at the age of ten years. About this repertoire, Lloyd says: 'Music has always been for me both inspiration and consolation. The sentiments I would like to share with those who listen to me.
