5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful mix of new and traditional songs, December 16, 2000

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Celtic Music at it's Best, June 17, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Fare Thee Well Love (Audio CD)

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 definatly a great CD to pick up.

4.0 out of 5 stars Some cuts excellent, others so-so, November 1, 2002

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.
