Handful Of Earth (2026 Reissue) Dick Gaughan
Widely hailed as one of the greatest folk albums ever recorded, 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.
This 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 allows both longtime fans and new listeners to experience the record in its best possible form.
