Bob’s latest album, SOMETHING WORSE THAN LONELINESS, released by Ace Records, is out now.

Order it on the merch page.

Here are a couple of the songs:

“Back to Me in Memphis.”

 

“Born For This.”

 

Bob’s 2016 album, MAGELLAN WAS WRONG, released by Ace Records, is still a great one.

Order it on the merch page.

Here are a couple of those songs:

“I Don’t Know How to Love You.”

 

 

“I Turn to You.”

 

And… here are some of his other songs posted onto YouTube by faithful fans.

 

 

This is by no means Bob’s best song, but it’s the one most people know him for:
“Elusive Butterfly”

 

 

Here are two tracks from his 2012 album, Finding You Again.

“How Dare You Love Me?”

and

“Maybe It’s the Rain”:

 

 

Here are two recent examples of Bob Lind live onstage:

“Blind Love,” a new Lind song, taped on Sept. 12, 2013 in the semi-darkness after his concert in Bilbao, Spain, for the archives of Colegio de Abogados Arts Council

“Someone to Adore,” at McCabe’s, May 25, 2012

 

 

Here’s a rare example of Bob singing something he did NOT write:

Tom Paxton’s “Bottle of Wine,” at McCabe’s, May 25, 2012

 

 

These four cuts are from the critically acclaimed 2010 documentary/concert DVD BOB LIND: Perspective:
“Looking for You”

 

“Spilling Over”

“Wearing You”

“Cheryl’s Goin’ Home”

 

 

 

These two songs are from Bob’s classic 1971 album
SINCE THERE WERE CIRCLES:“Anymore” and “City Scenes”

Here are two versions of Bob’s incredible “How the Nights Can Fly.”

First, his own version (from a televised Spanish Radio program):
