Rejected Recordings from "Folk Songs of Hungary." The music on the album, released just one year after the Hungarian Revolution was crushed by Soviet tanks, speaks of simpler pursuits: courting, love, drinking, and more love. - 1964

Holcomb's white-knuckle performances reflect a time before radio told musicians how to play, and these recordings make other music seem watered-down in comparison. His high, tense voice inspired the term "high lonesome sound."
