Condition: Brand new sealed album. One hard to find packaging flaw which is one tiny dent on bottom seam.
Originally released
in 1965, this is Holcomb's first full album for Folkways. The man for whom
the term "The High Lonesome Sound" was coined certainly shows why
here. This is Appalachian folk music both beautiful and harsh, harrowing and
tender. Essential recordings from this Kentucky native lovingly reissued in a
perfect replica of the original Folkways jacket and including a reproduction
of the original information booklet. Smithsonian Folkways hype sticker on shrink.
