The man once called "America's favorite gospel song stylist", Rev. Harold Jackson "Jack" Holcomb, has been gone for over 35 years, but his albums are as popular today as they were in his fifteen-year recording career. Here in this space I will share what I have learned about Jack Holcomb, information that has not been easy to find because Jack died in July 1968, long before there was a World Wide Web. Hopefully, many more people will join with me and help me to build up this web site as a resource for people who are interested in knowing more about a fellow Christian who loved his Lord and raised his voice in songs of praise his whole life long.

Jack Holcomb on CD
In the recent past I have been involved in efforts to see some of Jack Holcomb's music remastered and re-released. The efforts have always failed. If there are any masters still around, since the market is so tiny, there is very little chance of our ever seeing a record company offer any of these wonderful albums ever again. I find this unacceptable and will do whatever I can, for as long as I can, to make the music readily available. The CDs I offer are made from good originals and then run through special software to clean up the sound, making a decent copy. The following CD's are available for $9.00 or less each (see below):
- Dearest To My Heart
- Gospel Songs that Touch the Heart
- His Hand in Mine
- I Asked the Lord
- I Found the Answer
- I Have a Song
- I'm Going Higher Someday
- I'm Gonna Go Back
- I'm Not Alone
- I Need Thee Every Hour
- In Times Like These
- It Took a Miracle
- Led By the Master's Great Hand
