Review

With Uprooted, the erstwhile Rankin Family have altered their appellation somewhat (they're now officially the Rankins) while tinkering far more with their overall approach. While the familial harmonies of brother Jimmy and sisters Cookie, Heather, and Raylene (who's since left the group) remain in the fore, the Rankins brought in veteran producer George Massenburg (Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor) to refresh the soundscapes that enfold those heavenly harmonies. The new-country opener, "Movin' On," lets you know these Canadians have headed south, a journey that isn't without some pitfalls. The Gaelic undercurrents that marked striking earlier albums such as the superior North Country remain but are buried a little deeper in Nashville turf. That commercial sheen found throughout Uprooted will likely earn the Rankins new followers, but longtime fans may long for those deep northern roots. --Steven Stolder
