Thread Name: The Rankin Family Returns
Subject: RE: The Rankin Family Returns
The Rankin family has long been one of my favorite groups and I have tried year after year to get the "powers that be" with the North Texas Irish Festival to bring them down here - but to no avail. John Morris may be gone, but I'd bet they can still pull off the Celtic stuff quite well - it's those wonderful female voices. Their version of, "As I Roved Out" is one of my favorites; and, "Padstow" they do up quite well. Welcome back Rankins and here's hoping you all can make it down to Texas. Cheers.
