Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: The Rankin Family is the obvious choice for pure celtic music unadulterated by commercial input. If you love celtic fiddling and guitar, it is here as well!
CD does not play correctly
Album Rating: (1 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: This CD does not play the last 3 songs; it skips and has blank spots. The CD was advertised as excellent condition.
North Country




Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: I bought this blind. I love this CD. It is true chicken skin music! It is addictive. The songs are haunting. I love making a new discovery. All I can say is take a chance on something you have never heard before.
The best of the best




Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: In a growing genre crowded with talent, the Rankin Family is arguably the best C3 (Contemporary Canadian Celtic) group around. And North Country is their best album. The song writing is inspired and the varied voices of the brothers and sisters, from husky to sweet, knit together beautifully to create a warm, richly textured hour of music.
By the way, it's worth trying to catch the Rankin Family in concert. The sisters bang out a mean step dance.
A beautiful, deeply affecting album




Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)
Review Comments: This is a suberb CD. The Rankins can lift you up, and can break your heart. I bought this CD after hearing the Rankins on a Chieftains CD. I'm so glad I did. "Rise Again", especially, almost always moves me to tears. Just beautiful.
