Bob Lind both wrote and recorded the song "Elusive Butterfly". In 1966 it climbed to #5 on the Hot 100, staying on the charts for many weeks. Although Bob Lind has written many songs for other artists over the years, he never had another hit himself. In 2006 at the urging of Arlo Guthrie, Bob came out of retirement and continues to perform today. Unfortunately his one hit is a forgotten oldie today.
