Bob Lind's "Elusive Butterfly" was one of the to the highest degree successful one-shots of the mid-'60s folk-rock boom, stretch the Top Five in early 1966. He ne'er came close to matching that early crow, although other acts brought his songs to a wider hearing with their covers of Lind compositions like "Cheryl's Going Home" (Vapors Project), "Counting" (Marianne Faithfull), and "Mr. Zero" (Yardbirds' lead story vocaliser Keith Relf). The dish of Jack Nitzsche's intricate production on Lind's two 1966 LPs, favoring acoustic guitars and pretty string arrangements, is admirable, simply Lind himself hasn't raddled that well. His songs ar verbose and on the didactical incline; his vocalism is nervous and lacks emotional range; his melodies are pretty, only non enormously so.
