@KrayzieCMB it is a shortened name for Whycocomagh a nearby community to where the Rankins grew up, it borders a lake on one side hence "the shores" reference.
They took the best live performance off of here recently. That sux, It was from Canada Day somewhere in either Quebec or NB cause there was french. Jimmy goes off in it, if anyone has the link please pm me.
@KrayzieCMB you are referring to Ottawa 1995 on Parliament Hill and the vid was removed by the poster 'lbrankinfiles' because the person closed his/her youtube account. The Rankins have a FaceBook account the link is posted there too but does not work.
@shootinguard97 Not from there, but always wanted to! The Maritimes are so gorgeous, can't wait to visit there one day. I love our beautiful country<3
I saw the Rankin Family live years ago, and after all these years I still think it was pretty much the best concert I ever went to, and this was the best song of the whole night! So great to see live!
I've grown up listening them, on tapes and CD's and now on iTunes... My parents have actually seen them live a few times. I love the Rankin Family, they bring so much pride and happiness not only to several people but to all of Canada.
Gotta love the cape. I grew up there like mostly everyone else who commented. I'm from mabou and "mr MacNeil is my grandfather who just passed away 3 weeks ago. He was a legendary man if you heard everything about him
This song is by the Rankin Family from Cape Breton, Nova Scota. They grew up playing instruments and singing at a very early age and playing for friends and neighbours at weekly 'kitchen parties' as we like to call them here. Nova Scotia translates to New Scotland.

people that don't know where the Rankin's are from shouldn't be allowed to listen to the music. My brothers played hockey with them. Down with the causeway. lol
There are only 2 kinds of people in this world cape bretoner's and people who wish they were

"I'll go home- I'll go home!" tends to sound, if you're not listening carefully, "Al Capone, Al Copone!" XD
