    The Orangedale Whistle is one of my favourite songs. A ballad about bygone era of train travel, wonderfully song by the family. I have visited the museum site in Orangedale, NS. beautiful place.

    "Orangedale Whistle" and "Fair and Tender Ladies" are my two favourite Rankin Songs and they play them one after another.

    it’s cool that they played Waltham seeing that there are so many Maritimers living there and many before them as well..Atlantic Canada and Massachusetts have a long connection..myself having lived in Fitchburg back in the late 70’s .. love the Rankins , you made Maritimers so proud thank you❤ RIP Morris and Rayleen 🙏🏻

    Cookie singing Fair and Tender Ladies is better than the studio version. Thank you for sharing this awesome concert. I saw them live in Nashville in 96. Always a favourite group

    Absolutely lost for words BUT I feel a little ashamed. 55 years old, lived here in rural Newfoundland all my life and most of the songs on Part 1 of this awesome video I dont know the songs and have never heard the Rankins sing them. I guess I'm more used the the Rankin's and their more modern music. But whether it be modern or Traditional, You do an absolutely beautiful job with all of them. I feel so proud to say they're from Eastern Canada and here they are playing in Waltham, just 10 miles from my favorite Sports team, the Boston Bruins.. The Rankin Family for years have made Canadian home and away so very proud. We love you guys and love your music so much..I play a little myself, put out a CD 3 yrs ago, big bucket list item.. I just play at fund raisers and senior homes but I love it so much.. God Bless you all!!

      Beautiful tribute! It's fascinating to me how proud they make me feel of them as an adult person with roots in Nova Scotia. When they were at the height of their commercial popularity I was aware of them but didn't appreciate them as much as I do now. All of them are just astounding musicians in their own right, let alone as a family group. And for what it's worth the bass player is the coolest guy on stage and grooves like crazy!

    So beautiful...I hadn't seen this video before. It is especially sweet since some of the singers have passed and at least one of this group is still making her way in music.

    Whiskey In The Jar - First I heard this song performed by Metallica!! Didn't know then, that it was a traditional Irish folk song. Soon found out through recordings from the Pog's, Irish Rover's, etc. I think I like this version the best!! So much energy. Gonna watch it again!!

    If we get back to Cape Breton we will have to look for the Red Shoe. I'd love to see that the Rankins are still making music.

    Wish they would have new family members who could come up through the ranks and be a new Rankin Family. They were so talented. We had hoped to see them when we were in Cape Breton in 2009, but I think they were no longer performing. I know Heather is performing alone.

      A song well-known in Scotland (in English) but this version is simply breathtaking. 👍
