Kenny Rankin was one of the Best Singers ever. I cried when I heard he passed away, and looking at this video, I started to cry again, remembering joking with him about his guitar(may be the same guitar in this concert) remembering his concerts, his jokes, and having met him a few times. The Kenny Rankin Album with 'Sunny' 'House Of Gold' is still one of my favourites.He was also an excellent songwiter. I Miss Him. Hartley C.
This is the MAN! I was so depressed when he died - definitely my favorite. I got to see him perform 2x in small venues which was great. The guy was a genius. Thankfully we have his amazing gift to play over and over and over again.
I can still remember the first time I heard "Silver Morning." That song, his voice...lifted my spirits and took me far away from my troubles. We will miss you, Kenny. Much love to you.
RIP Kenny! RIP Jack Segal....my father n law whom I named my daughter Solana "for sunny" in the honor of this beautiful song. Thank you for being there for Jack's memorial......you will always be there in our hearts and memories.......
I am stunned and saddened. I only learned of his death right here, just now. I've seen him live many times. His radio interview with B. Mitchell Reed on KMET 30 years ago is something I will always remember. His style and understated flair will never be forgotten. Thank you, Kenny, for so many years of musical memories. Rest in peace.
Truly a stellar work of art at the highest level. I'm late in recognizing him but what a talent. His phrasing is superb and music is the art of tell a story lyrical. He is simply awesome.
I was so busy in June that I somehow missed the news that Kenny Rankin had died. Today I stumbled upon the news on the internet and I was so shocked and saddened, I cried all morning and am crying again. I never got to see him in live performance, but have loved his music since the 1970s, when I first heard Silver Morning. I wore that record out. I am so so sad that he is gone. thanks to all who posted these videos so that we don't have to miss him. ..we can see and hear him anytime.
He's a genius. Overwhelming and unique voice. I just close my eyes and realize his sexy voice sounds like a tenor saxophone. A brilliant, versatile and flexible vocals, indeed - he can play with his voice style with ease. Mabuhay ka, Mr. Kenny!
So sad! I just found out this hour that Kenny is gone. Bar none, the BEST singer I've EVER heard!! Thanks you for posting this video! I'm going off to cry now.
Just read the news today. Kenny Rankin has died from complications of Lung Cancer. He had been scheduled to be going into the studio to record a new record but became to ill.

Same here...I just found out...today. Such a passionate, sincere, musician/vocalist. The epitome of a mellow mood...
I was shocked when he pass away he is my favorite artist and you can listen to his song 24/7.
It's just beautiful.
He really punctuated my youth in the 70's with his distinctive, sweet voice. I feel so sad for him. Rest in Peace Kenny.
Love his singing, arrangements, & his spirit, such a gentle one. I will miss him, but will continue listening to his music forever....
Kenny Rankin and Michael Franks are (were) the best...
An angel of a voice-I wore the grooves out of my KR lps in the 70's. The world was richer for him.
In fine voice and well recorded performance. Kenny Rankin is a cut above everyone in this mold. You will never be surpassed.
What a talent - just listening to his voice sends me to a very peaceful place. May his soul rest in peace. We didn't enjoy him enough on this earth!
