Thanks to Christi, my head is once again turned into the Rankin Family direction. Jimmy Rankin has an official video out in YouTube so you might want to check his site out. This is country tinged with that unmistakable Cape Breton echo. Slipping Away is a warm track that simply makes your head sway and spread a warm sensation all over I realize how bitter-sweet the song is. I like the part when he sings: ” I hear you calling, a thousand light years away”. That voice is awesome. The new album Edge of Day is out!
P.S.
I will be posting an article plus interview with the band The Gypsy Nomads soon. So stay tuned for that.
Jimmy was often in the background with the Rankin Family because of his three exceptionally vocally talented sisters but he has stepped out in a huge way with this song!
Thanks, Bax!

Hello people,
What online zines do you read and would recommend? I am a die hard fan of rockabilly.
For all you punk folks out there I recommend The Enough Fanzine. It is one of the first ska ezines on the internet.
They have throusands of interviews from the most popular bands all over the world. Check them out online: Enough Fanzine. Best of it all, they are 100% non-profit and just helping the scene!
Looking forward to your recommendations.
Regards!
