Click to purchase "Fare Thee Well Love" from Amazon.com November 1, 2002 Some cuts excellent, others so-so Every now and again I buy an album simply because one of the cuts is outstanding and moving. This was my motivation here. The selection Fair and Tender Ladies is even better than the sixties PPM version! Fare Thee Well Love is also very heart felt and moving. The rest of the cuts are somewhere between outstanding and somewhat tedious to listen to. None the less, I felt the price for the two songs mentioned was worth the price. August 8, 2001 A great down-home folksome album Now boys and girls.. gather 'round the fire. It's chilly out there, so let's warm ourselves with our voices and fiddles. And Ukeleles. And Kazoos. And Harmonicas. And geeetars. The album sure left me speechless! Never before have I had the opportunity to hear such a wide variety of groovin' tunes. Here's an album that'll help y'all get down with yer funky selves. Now clap along everyone! The Rankin Family's a comin' and they're bringin' a trainload of goopy nostalgia and folksy yet weary melodrama. Tell my ma when I get home, I wish the Rankins would leave me alone! December 16, 2000 A wonderful mix of new and traditional songs Reviewer: Gillian from Canada Whether singing original compositions or traditional ones, no-one does it quite like the Rankins. This is their 2nd album and every bit as good as their first, which I recommend also. They also sing some of the traditional songs in Gaelic which makes for a refreshing change. Unfortunately John Morris Rankin was killed in a freak accident last year, and will be very sadly missed by all. For anyone interested in East Coast/Maritime music, this is a must. June 17, 2000 Celtic Music at it's Best If your looking for a nice celtic cd, then this is it. Rankin Family does celtic music like no other. They have a balance of slow and up beat selections, and do them all with style. This is definitly a great CD to pick up. Review Quotes |
