    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

              This enjoyable and enlightening 14-song compilation sheds much-needed light on alternative country--both the music and term itself--and includes few, if any, weaknesses. As the notes explain, Uprooted highlights alt-country's notable artists and also displays the breadth of the genre, which has come to include any country-flavored music that is not contemporary Nashville swill. You'll find Earlesque roots-rock (Kevin Gordon), straight-up Hank (Wayne Hancock) or Hag (Dale Watson), delicate folk (Tom Russell and Iris DeMent), Texas prairie music (Don Walser), chimey country-pop (Ana Egge), brooding rock (Trish Murphy), contemporary bluegrass (Gwil Owen), outlaw (Libbi Bosworth), and progressive singer-songwriter (R.B. Morris). Paul Burch's superb "Jackson, TN" seems to owe as much to Roy Acuff as anyone else. Kelly Willis, a major-label refugee, enlists the support of acoustic Son Volt; meanwhile, Robbie Fulks, a major-label newcomer in 1998, recalls Nashville's prime with slippery vocal twang and unadorned lyrics. --Marc Greilsamer
