Leon Bibb was a singer, actor and activist in the fight against racial segregation in the 1960s. He was born February 7, 1922 and passed away on October 23rd 2015 he grew up in Kentucky, studied voice in New York City, and worked on Broadway. His career began when he became a featured soloist of the Louisville Municipal College glee club as a student. He lived in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, after 1969.
The great Leon Bibb. So cool to find this clip --- I used to watch Hootenanny in the '60's but I don't recall ever seeing this one. After seeing him on a different show (he also appeared on The Ed Sullivan Show) I found a couple of his albums at my public library in Tacoma, and gained a deep appreciation for his talent. He ended up living in Vancouver, BC from the 1970's on, until his death in 2015. Sometimes confused with the Cleveland news anchor Leon Bibb.
And there we are 60 years later in more boxes than ever .... sometimes real but a lot of imaginary ones
Another great find!
Beautiful song!
This was a prophesy song for sure!
This was a popular folk song that I remember well, but not certain who sang it.
