Recorded in 1975 at
his eastern Kentucky home, this is the last album Holcomb released before his
death in 1981. A coal miner and farmer for much of his life, those struggles
are reflected in his sparse, haunting recordings. Featuring only Holcomb on
vocals, guitar, and banjo, Close To Home 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.
