《英語の内容説明》
The life of Bob Gibson, the unsung father of commercially popular folk music, whose influence is still being felt in today's music, is celebrated in "Bob Gibson: I Come For To Sing", by Carole Bender and Bob Gibson. Included with the book is Bob Gibson's CD "Stops Along the Way".

The book is autobiographical as much as possible, but his importance to his contemporaries is emphasized by original contributions by such legends as Shel Silverstein, Pete Seeger, Joan Baez, Peter Yarrow, Tom Paxton, Hamilton Camp, Gordon Lightfoot, Glenn Yarbrough, George Carlin and many others.

Bob Gibson is largely responsible for the revival of folk music in the late 50s and early 60s, as well as its elevation to a more widely-accepted popularity througout the country. In addition to his own musical contributions, Bob also wrote or co-wrote many of the more popular folk songs of the era, some of which were recorded by Peter, Paul & Mary, Simon & Garfunkel, The Byrds, and many others. His influence, his music, and his impeccable mastering of the 12-string guitar influenced an entire generation of performers.

This book is a tribute to Gibson's contribution to music, as well as a heartfelt tribute to the man himself, exploring his life and his career, the triumphs as well as the trials, including a dark look into his battle with drug addiction. Additional features include the most comprehensive Bob Gibson discography ever compiled, Gibson's complete song-writing textbook, the script of his play, "The Courtship of Carl Sandburg", numerous photos and illustrations, and of course, the CD "Stops Along the Way."

Proceeds from the sale of this book through this website go to the Bob Gibson Trust.
