Dick Gaughan - Handful of Earth Print E-mail
Wednesday, 05 September 2007

ImageSeen by many as his all time classic album, Handful of Earth was released in 1981 on the Topic Label. A real treat.

Album: Handful of Earth
Buy from Topic Records

 This mixture of love songs, odes of parting and political commentaries such as Worker's Song and World Turned Upside Down is Gaughan's most complex and emotionally penetrating album, and has come to be recognised as a masterwork.
