5.0 out of 5 stars a memory from long ago, June 9, 2009
This review is from: Family (Audio CD)
This is a wonderful album. I bought it way back in the late 60s or early 70s. If you like Kenny Rankin, you'll love his covers of the songs included here. If you don't know him, his quiet, gentle interpretations will be a lovely surprise. I wish it would be reissued as a cd-I would buy it in a second!

5.0 out of 5 stars ...A GEM AVAILABLE NEWLY AS A BEAUTIFUL MINI LP!, January 27, 2008
By 
Rafael "RaFael" (Brazil, SC Joinville) - See all my reviews
Rankin's second Mercury release follows in the same musical direction as his debut. Again, there are fine covers of singer/songwriters of the late '60s, including reworkings of music from Gordon Lightfoot, Steve Stills, and Donovan. An ambitious cover of the Bert Jansch classic "Needle of Death" shows off Rankin's guitar skillfulness. "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," one of two Beatles covers, gives birth to Rankin's ability to make Beatles songs all his own, and Goffin & King's "Up on the Roof" illustrates Rankin's 1950s Brill Building pop sensibility. This wonderful, long-out-of-print recording will hopefully find its way back in print someday.

YES, THIS DAY IS 23TH, January 2008.
