Songs About People # 108 Bob Lind


Song which namechecks sixties singer songwriter, best known for his big and quite beautiful 1965 hit Elusive Butterfly a success he never managed to repeat though its enough of an achievement in itself. From Pulp's slightly glum final album, rather disingenuously entitled We Love Life. I've posted both below as well as another of Lind's songs. His other recordings are worthy of investigation. Full of that mid sixties singer songwriter rolling wordiness.He overdoes it on occasions and finds himself heading down cul de sacs but gets it just right with the songs posted here.
