One of my alltime favorites -- I love folkways -- hire me I'll dedicate every ounce to the preservation and continuing education of these artists works.

There is nothing pretentious about Mr. Holcomb...He was the real deal. Such a shame this music is disapearing

@abbnerd Roscoe was the real deal, not all polished like Scruggs, just raw and powerful. I learned about him from his one song on the Zabriskie Point soundtrack album. The song is "Wish I Was A Single Girl Again", which I've never seen anywhere else. Is it on any of his CDs that are available ?
