Someone posted this a day or two back. I looked it up on Discogs but I couldn't figure out which records it is sourced from.

Roscoe Holcomb - Close to Home

Listening to this today I am struck by how much it sounds like Holcomb learned his songs from records. There are moments where the phrasing seems identical to the likes of Dock Boggs or Frank Hutchison.

Nice opportunity to hear some more of Earl Cross as well. His name pops up a lot in the book As Serious as Your Life by Val Wilmer but he hasn’t recorded very much. 

I treasure a note from Earl Cross thanking me for the check.

Check out the two volumes of Definitive on Storyville.

Those are Charles Tyler records with Cross.

Re_ Jazztime USA"

The liner of my posted copy  say "the selctions of this album have been previouslly released on the DECCA labels

To find the special LP's  I suggest  do a search for the single titles or artists listed or probably under "Leonard Feather presents series"

Mine isn't a reissue, CadNor in the US still have original stock so I bought it from them
