Bobby Norfolk
How are? Still listening? Thanks for being here, I know there are a lot of other things you could be doing.
This conversation with Bobby Norfolk is a delight. Recorded over Zoom in Coronavirus Time, this light and calming time was great reprieve. I do not know Bobby well. He was incredibly gracious about spending this time with me, sharing how he became such a remarkable storyteller after being a child who stuttered. This is a man who worked in night clubs and met some wonderful people. I have to say I am very jealous of his experience with Roberta Flack! He is quiet, unassuming, generous jet explodes on stage! He commands attention and in such a genuine way, he is free and funny.
Bobby tells us his influences (have a look at some of the comics he mentions, they are great to study for pace, timing and presence), his process and how he finds his stories.
Have a look at one Bobby's first influences, Jimmy Dean, the ballad singer: https://youtu.be/KnnHprUGKF0
Enjoy this enlightening and delightful conversation.
