1	A Day Without Rain (2000) more music like this by Enya Enya's first full-length album of new material in five years (and her fourth in 12 years) will have a familiar sound to the millions who have followed her career so far. As usual, the slow songs sound like "Silent Night" being performed in a cathedral, and the less slow songs are paced by rhythm patterns that would be called pizzicato passages if ... see all copies from $2.98! new only from $8.95!
2	Watermark (1988) more music like this by Enya Thanks to its distinct, downright catchy single "Orinoco Flow," which amusingly referenced both her record-company boss Rob Dickins and co-producer Ross Cullum in the lyrics, Enya's second album Watermark established her as the unexpected queen of gentle, Celtic-tinged new age music. To be sure, her success was as much due to marketing a niche ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $16.52!
3	Paint the Sky with Stars: The Best of Enya (1997) more music like this by Enya Paint the Sky with Stars: The Best of Enya is an excellent 16-song overview of Enya's career, containing 14 selections from The Celts, Watermark, Shepherd Moon, and The Memory of Trees -- including "Caribbean Blue," "Anywhere Is," "Marble Halls," "Book of Days," and, of course, "Orinoco Flow" -- as well as two previously unreleased songs ("Only If ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $16.52!
4	Amarantine (2005) more music like this by Enya Second only to U2 as the most successful Irish recording artist of all time, Enya has built an empire out of multi-tracking her beautiful voice over the same keyboard patches that appeared on her post-Clannad debut since 1987. It's an empire that has progressed at a slow burn, peaking in 2000 and 2001 with her chart-topping ballad and unofficial ... see all copies from $13.99! new only from $16.52!
5	A Christmas Celebration more music like this by Celtic Woman Manhattan's 15-track holiday compilation Celtic Woman: A Christmas Celebration features traditional yuletide classics like "Away in a Manger," "Little Drummer Boy," "O Holy Night," and "Silent Night" sung by some of the genre's loveliest sirens and accompanied by the occasional harp, cello, violin, and keyboard. Fans of Enya and Clannad will find ... see all copies from $13.49! new only from $13.49!
6	Shepherd Moons (1991) more music like this by Enya Calling Shepherd Moons a near carbon copy of Watermark puts it quite mildly. Like Watermark, Shepherd Moons opens with the title track, a calm instrumental, has another brief instrumental titled after a Dora Saint book smack in the middle ("No Holly for Miss Quinn"), and concludes with a number incorporating a striking uilleann pipes solo, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $16.23!
7	Celtic Woman [Manhattan] (2005) more music like this by Various Artists Manhattan Records' release of Celtic Woman is a compilation/collaboration between five unknown vocalists, introduced only by their first names (Chloë, Lisa, Órla, Méav, and Máiréad), who take turns chirping Irish ballads as heard through a dramatic, lush new age filter. Via reverb-heavy and thick keyboard atmospherics, the singers cover ... see all copies from $4.89! new only from $13.47!
8	The Book of Secrets (1997) more music like this by Loreena McKennitt The Book of Secrets, the follow-up to 1994's The Mask and Mirror -- there was a Christmas EP, A Winter Garden, released in 1995) -- finds Loreena McKennitt in the same musical vein, mixing Celtic, Spanish, Italian, and new age to create her own distinct sound. The only problem is that she did not seem to progress much during the time between ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $13.58!
9	The Mask and Mirror (1994) more music like this by Loreena McKennitt Press play and enter the world of Loreena McKennitt, where walls dissolve into thick, billowing mists as the ground beneath your feet turns to compacted earth and the sky above opens up to reveal a black cloak dotted with shimmering stars draped beneath silk-like clouds. Were McKennitt's composing and songwriting abilities lacking of any luster ... see all copies from $3.49! new only from $9.88!
10	The Memory of Trees (1995) more music like this by Enya No surprises here, of course -- Enya didn't achieve new age superstardom by challenging anyone's expectations. This album is every bit as hushed, lovely, and soulless as everything else she's ever done; like a perfect angel food cake, it's sweet, soft, and utterly lacking in nutritive substance. There's nothing the matter with angel food cake, of ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
11 view cover	A New Journey (2007) more music like this by Celtic Woman Celtic Woman, a Riverdance-inspired PBS phenomena that boasts the talents of several female leads and a whole lot of orchestra and genre instruments like pipes, bodhrans, and fiddles, gives contemporary Celtic the Il Divo treatment on New Journey, a lovely and occasionally over the top collection of familiar melodies and grandiose sentiments that ... see all copies from $6.47! new only from $16.51!
12 view cover	The Celts (1987) more music like this by Enya Initially released simply as Enya, The Celts shows that the style she became famous for on Watermark was already well under way. With production and lyrical help fully in place thanks to her husband-and-wife gurus Nicky and Roma Ryan, Enya's combination of Celtic traditionalism and distinctly modern approach finds lush flower here. All the ... see all copies from $4.56! new only from $16.18!
13 view cover	Long Black Veil (1995) more music like this by The Chieftains With Long Black Veil, the Chieftains attempted a mainstream pop crossover by recording with rock and pop stars from the Rolling Stones and Sting to Van Morrison and Sinéad O'Connor. Instead of changing their sound to accommodate the talents of their guests, the band plays it straight. As always, their performance is superb; what is surprising is ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $9.45!
14 view cover	The Book of Secrets [Enhanced] (2006) more music like this by Loreena McKennitt The Book of Secrets, the follow-up to 1994's The Mask and Mirror (there was a Christmas EP, A Winter Garden, released in 1995), finds Loreena McKennitt in the same musical vein, mixing Celtic, Spanish, Italian, and new age to create her own distinct sound. The only problem is that she did not seem to progress much during the time between releases. ... see all copies from $12.39! new only from $17.90!
15 view cover	The Celtic Circle (2003) more music like this by Various Artists The term "Celtic" covers a broad sweep of music, from the traditional to new age, and this compilation seems intended to offer selections from all areas -- though with a slight emphasis on the new age end rather than music with a deep history. To that end, there are plenty of sweeping synthesizer chords, aching vocals, and rich, ethereal harmonies ... see all copies from $14.06! new only from $17.76!
16 view cover	Parallel Dreams (1989) more music like this by Loreena McKennitt Parallel Dreams, the Canadian harpist/songwriter's quietly moving sophomore release, finds the mystical red-haired siren in true balladeer form. By far McKennitt's most romantic venture -- the liner notes describe the project's central theme as a "yearning toward love, liberty and integration" -- Dreams is more ambitious than her sparse, ... see all copies from $8.99! new only from $8.99!
17 view cover	Enya (1986) more music like this by Enya With production and lyrical help fully in place thanks to her husband-and-wife gurus Nicky and Roma Ryan, Enya's combination of Celtic traditionalism and distinctly modern approach finds lush flower on her self-titled debut. All the elements that characterize her music -- open, clear nods to her Irish heritage, any number of vocal overdubs to ... see all copies from $9.00!
18 view cover	Only Time/Oiche Chiun (2001) more music like this by Enya see all copies from $1.99! new only from $6.41!
19 view cover	The Best of the Chieftains [1992] (1992) more music like this by The Chieftains Well, sort of. The 50 minutes of music here represent the best of the group's three albums (Chieftains 7, Chieftains 8, Boil the Breakfast Early) recorded for Columbia Records during 1977, 1978, and 1979. It's a good collection, and not a bad place to start for the new listener, though it won't offer any revelations for longtime fans, who'd tuned ... see all copies from $3.00! new only from $5.88!
20 view cover	Elemental [CD-ROM] (1985) more music like this by Loreena McKennitt Loreena McKennitt recorded her 1985 debut on a farm in southern Ontario, a pastoral setting that infuses every note on Elemental with atmosphere and rustic simplicity. What's immediately striking is the Canadian harpist's fully realized voice. Most artists take years to hone their pipes, and that McKennitt brings a nearly finished version to the ... see all copies from $4.94! new only from $17.55!
21 view cover	Christmas Songs (2004) more music like this by Anuna Internationally lauded contemporary Celtic vocal ensemble Anuna, best known stateside as the original Riverdance choir, lend their ghostly voices to the holiday genre with the Christmas-themed Winter Songs. The choir, led by sibling directors Michael and John McGlynn, downplay the "sing-songy" aspects of classic carols like "Away in a Manger" and ... see all copies from $7.57! new only from $8.91!
22 view cover	Celtic Voices: Women of Song (1995) more music like this by Various Artists Although studio gloss makes it hard to tell what nature created and what is masked with over-production, this pleasant collection contains some fine vocal performances, and the contributors (Mary McLaughlin, Connie Dover, Mairéid Sullivan, and Emma Christian) have gained impressive acclaim. Tim Sheridan, All Music Guide see all copies from $13.08! new only from $14.56!
23 view cover	Lake of Shadows (2001) more music like this by Phil Coulter Phil Coulter may have made his name way back when as a writer of pop hits, but since then he's practiced his craft on a broader musical canvas. Here the art becomes more intimate, dealing as it does with a most specific place in Ireland, Lough Swilly, and its associations, both warm and tragic, with his own history. In the '80s, the lake claimed ... see all copies from $8.11! new only from $11.06!
24 view cover	A New Journey [Deluxe Edition] (2007) more music like this by Celtic Woman Celtic Woman, a Riverdance-inspired PBS phenomena that boasts the talents of several female leads and a whole lot of orchestra and genre instruments like pipes, bodhrans, and fiddles, gives contemporary Celtic the Il Divo treatment on New Journey, a lovely and occasionally over the top collection of familiar melodies and grandiose sentiments that ... see all copies from $11.89! new only from $11.89!
