1995 album for the Canadian folk act. Recorded in Nashville with country music bigwig John Jennings & a number of musical guests (including Mary Chapin Carpenter & Sam Bush). Highlights include, 'You Feel the Same Way Too'. 11 tracks.

1993 album for the successful Canadian Folk/Country outfit. North Country solidifies the group's wholesome reputation. You can always count on The Rankins for at least one exquisite, stand-out pop melody per recording, that one here is the title track's tribute to Canadian wilderness. The voices of Cookie, Heather, and Raylene Rankin blend effectively with an intuitive sense of harmony. These are pure, attractive voices, but with a certain lack of emotional depth that parallels Jimmy and John Morris Rankin's sometimes over-sweetened, keyboard-dominated instrumentation.
