Jim R. Glover (born 1942) is an American peace activist and folk singer. He is from Cleveland, Ohio and lives in Brandon, Florida.

Glover attended Ohio State University, where he met Phil Ochs in the fall of 1960 and introduced Ochs to folk music, leftist politics, and taught him how to play guitar. Glover introduced Ochs to the music of Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie, and The Weavers. Both Ochs and Glover were campers at the cooperative summer camp in Delton, Michigan, Circle Pines Center, where the cook had been Big Bill Broonzy and a frequent visitor was Pete Seeger. Jim's father, Hugh Glover, was a socialist, and he was very influential to both Jim and Phil. As a result, the two became gradually more interested in politics and folk music. Glover and Ochs were in a short-lived folk duo called the "Singing Socialists", later renamed the "Sundowners". Though the group didn't last long, they remained friends.

Glover was at Phil Ochs's infamous Gunfight at Carnegie Hall performance in March 1970, and even performed the last song of the evening, "No More Songs", with Ochs that night (though that song was not included for release on the official live album). Glover sings backing vocals on the version of "No More Songs" that was previously released on Ochs' Greatest Hits album in 1970. He also appeared on the The Midnight Special TV series with Phil Ochs in 1974, and they performed the songs "Power and the Glory" and "Changes" together.
