Widely hailed as one of the greatest folk albums ever recorded (fRoots Album Of The Decade 1980s), Dick Gaughan's Handful of Earth returns in a stunning new heavyweight LP reissue - First released in 1981, the album captured Gaughan at the height of his powers, blending traditional Scottish and Irish songs with politically charged originals and his unmistakable open-tuned guitar style.
With the reissue, listeners have the opportunity to rediscover this landmark album's raw emotional power, and the bite of songs like "The World Turned Upside Down" and "Workers' Song". The reissue presents the album not just as a historical artefact, but as a living work still resonant in a time of social struggle, economic uncertainty and devolved national identities. Gaughan's combination of authenticity and activism remains compelling, and this reissue will allow both longtime fans and new listeners to experience the record in it's best possible form.

"Folk Album of the Year" - Melody Maker

"Album of the Decade." - fRoots

"By turns defiant, inspired, hopeful and downright angry, this is a genuine benchmark album, adorned by Gaughan's passionate and fearsome guitar." - HMV Choice : All time classic album.
