Released in 1981 on the legendary Topic Records label, Handful of Earth stands as one of Scottish folk musician Dick Gaughan's most celebrated works. Marking his return to recording after a period away from music, the album is widely regarded as a landmark in the folk genre and a testament to Gaughan's powerful artistry as both a guitarist and vocalist.
Handful of Earth is an essential addition to any serious folk music collection, representing the kind of deeply rooted, emotionally resonant songwriting that has made Gaughan a revered figure in folk, world, and country music. This new pressing on Topic Records gives fans and first-time listeners alike the chance to experience this timeless record in the warm, rich format of vinyl.
