"Roscoe Holcomb, September 5, 1912 - died February 1, 1981. A coal miner and farmer for much of his life, Holcomb was not recorded until 1958, after which his career as a professional musician was bolstered by the folk revival of the 1960s. Holcomb gave his last live performance in 1978. Suffering from asthma and emphysema as a result of working in coal mines, he died in 1981 at the age of 68." Some more about Roscoe
