Holcomb, Roscoe
Close To Home
This is a new release of the last album that appeared before his death in 1981. Holcombe was a coal miner and farmer for much of his life, and those struggles are reflected in his sparse, haunting recordings. Featuring only HOLCOMB on vocals, guitar, and banjo, this is a beautiful collection of folk-blues and old-time ballads including the epic 'The Village Churchyard'. Lovingly reissued on vinyl with an exact replica of the original Folkways jacket and booklet.
