1	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 $7.00! new only from $11.06!
2	The Essential Chieftains (2006) more music like this by The Chieftains RCA Legacy's The Essential Chieftains breaks the legendary Irish collective's career into two sections. The first disc focuses on 18 of the group's finest traditional works like "Boil the Breakfast Early," "The Wind That Shakes the Barley/The Reel with the Beryle," and "Donegal Set," while the second disc relies on 17 of the band's billion or so ... see all copies from $22.14! new only from $22.14!
3	The Celtic Harp (1993) more music like this by The Chieftains Produced by head Chieftain Paddy Maloney, The Celtic Harp is essentially a showcase for the very talented harpist Derek Bell. Bell handled all of the arrangements, as well as contributed harpsichord and tiompan to the proceedings. Fine solos from flute god Matt Malloy ("Parting of Friends/Kerry Fling"), vocalist Kevin Conneff ("Green Fields of ... see all copies from $6.91! new only from $6.91!
4	Further Down the Old Plank Road: The Nashville Sessions (2003) more music like this by The Chieftains In 2002, the legendary and insanely prolific Irish ensemble the Chieftains released Down the Old Plank Road: The Nashville Sessions. Utilizing American icons like Ricky Skaggs, Del McCoury, and Lyle Lovett alongside the blossoming Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, their interpretations of traditional Irish and Appalachian staples yielded a ... see all copies from $6.90! new only from $11.06!
5	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 $7.00! new only from $9.45!
6	Riverdance (1996) more music like this by Bill Whelan Even though the visual elements are missing, this soundtrack to Riverdance sounds quite spectacular, making a no-holds-barred attempt to captivate the listener with grandiose variations on Celtic musical forms. Adding to the grandeur and magic of the music are performances by artists such as Davy Spillane, Maire Breatnach, Anúna, Nicola Parov, ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.75!
7	Tears of Stone (1999) more music like this by The Chieftains This album is a follow-up to the 1995 album The Long Black Veil. The idea is the same: the Chieftains play house band for many guest vocalists and musicians. The difference this time around is that all the musicians and vocalists featured are women. Sinéad O'Connor is the one return performance, and she justifies that honor with her sorrowful and ... see all copies from $1.99! new only from $11.06!
8	The Best of Irish Rovers (1999) more music like this by The Irish Rovers Somewhere between Bing Crosby's vocal novelties back in the '40s and the current popularity of dance troupes like Riverdance and Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance, the flag of Irish music was held aloft in North America during the '60s by the success of the Irish Rovers. Patterning themselves after the Clancy Brothers (another popular group ... see all copies from $3.99! new only from $8.66!
9	Another Country (1992) more music like this by The Chieftains A classic for lovers of good and heartfelt music played with joy. This has Paddy Moloney and the Chieftains combining forces with one of the best assemblages of country musicians put together. A diverse group it definitely is, stretching from Ricky Skaggs to Don Williams to Colin James running into Willie Nelson and Chet Atkins and so forth in a ... see all copies from $3.84! new only from $11.06!
10	Full Tide (2005) more music like this by Mary Black Full Tide was released on the other side of the pond in 2005, and probably the true core of Mary Black fans picked this up already. Better late than never, and as Curb Records virtually whispered this out, it's a wonder that listeners get to hear it at all, so they should be grateful. As an album, Full Tide most closely resembles Shine in its ... see all copies from $15.02! new only from $16.85!
11	Rum Sodomy & the Lash (1985) more music like this by The Pogues "I saw my task... was to capture them in their delapidated glory before some more professional producer f--ked them up," Elvis Costello wrote of his role behind the controls for the Pogues' second album, Rum Sodomy & the Lash. One spin of the album proves that Costello accomplished his mission; this album captures all the sweat, fire, and angry ... see all copies from $9.00! new only from $13.12!

13 view cover	Rum Sodomy & the Lash [Bonus Tracks] (2005) more music like this by The Pogues "I saw my task...was to capture them in their dilapidated glory before some more professional producer fcked them up," Elvis Costello wrote of his role behind the controls for the Pogues' second album, Rum Sodomy & the Lash. One spin of the album proves that Costello accomplished his mission; this album captures all the sweat, fire, and angry joy ... see all copies* from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
14 view cover	Rant and Roar (1998) more music like this by Great Big Sea Essentially a compilation for the U.S. market, where the first three albums were unreleased, Rant and Roar samples tracks from the more commercially oriented second and third albums. While some great tracks are missing (notably a few from the first album), the songs included on this collection nevertheless provide a pretty representative and ... see all copies from $6.99! new only from $6.99!
15 view cover	The Bells of Dublin (1991) more music like this by The Chieftains Joined by Nancy Griffith, the Irish group presents a superb concert, blending folk and country music. Well recorded and well photographed. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $1.99! new only from $8.29!
16 view cover	If I Should Fall from Grace with God [Bonus Track] (2006) more music like this by The Pogues If Rum Sodomy & the Lash captured the Pogues on plastic in all their rough-and-tumble glory, If I Should Fall from Grace with God proved they could learn the rudiments of proper record making and still come up with an album that captured all the sharp edges of their musical personality. Producer Steve Lillywhite imposed a more disciplined approach ... see all copies from $8.80! new only from $11.11!
17 view cover	Santiago (1996) more music like this by The Chieftains Here the Chieftains have embarked upon an exploration of the "lost Celtic province" of Galicia (the northwest corner of Spain) and areas extending to Portugal, the Basque provinces, and Cuba. They have used the finest musicians from these areas to propel their music with a conviction that staggers the imagination. Santiago catapults the listener ... see all copies from $6.86! new only from $6.86!
18 view cover	Red Roses for Me [Bonus Tracks] (2005) more music like this by The Pogues What set the Pogues apart from any number of other energetic Irish traditional bands was the sheer physical force of their performances, the punky swagger of their personalities, and Shane MacGowan's considerable gifts as a songwriter. Unfortunately, none of these qualities comes through very clearly on their first album, Red Roses for Me. While ... see all copies from $11.11! new only from $11.11!
19 view cover	Celtic Treasure: The Legacy of Turlough O'Carolan (1996) more music like this by Various Artists see all copies from $14.83! new only from $14.83!
20 view cover	Local Ground (2005) more music like this by Altan When Altan first lit up the folk scene in 1989 with the superb Horse With a Heart, critics and listeners alike heralded them as the future of traditional Celtic music. Slowly but surely the group lived up to its promise, delivering album after album of forward-thinking jigs, ballads, reels, and airs, but as the genre became flooded with likeminded ... see all copies from $15.98! new only from $15.98!
21 view cover	Celtic Woman, Vol. 1 (1998) more music like this by Various Artists A sleeve note helpfully divides the seven female Celtic performers on this disc into "Singer-songwriter (Marian Bradfield, Fiona Joyce), Roots (Maighread Ni Dhomhnaill & Aine Furey) and experimental Celtic (Loreena McKennitt, Melanie O'Reilly & Rita Connolly)." In practice, you would say that they actually have much in common, in that they are all ... see all copies from $7.26! new only from $14.83!
22 view cover	The Unicorn (1971) more music like this by The Irish Rovers The single most popular record that The Irish Rovers ever made, their cover of Shel Silverstein's slyly written "The Unicorn" stands apart from the more straightforward material on this album, which is devoted to good times, family, and religious differences, and other significant elements of Irish song. Bruce Eder, All Music Guide see all copies from $6.24!
23 view cover	Rogue's Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs, & Chanteys (2006) more music like this by Various Artists While the marketing insanity for Pirates of the Caribbean II continues to echo in the popular mindset, this whopping yet seemingly near-underground document -- born from the minds of the film's director, Gore Verbinski, his pal Johnny Depp, and Anti-Epitaph label boss (and Verbinski buddy) Brett Gurewitz -- may end up as a lasting contribution to ... see all copies from $11.83! new only from $19.74!
24 view cover	Home for Christmas (1999) more music like this by Irish Tenors The Irish Tenors' second album, Home for Christmas, features a 90-piece orchestra, a host of traditional holiday songs, and the Tenors' rich harmonies. Home for Christmas also includes traditional Irish and inspirational songs, rounding out an accomplished, accessible collection. Heather Phares, All Music Guide see all copies from $5.20! new only from $13.62!
25 view cover	No Boundaries (1997) more music like this by Natalie MacMaster In the 1960s and '70s there was growing concern within Celtic music circles that the perceived lack of interest and participation could jeopardize the future of that tradition. With the arrival and subsequent success of artists like Altan, Seamus Egan, Eileen Ivers, and Ashley MacIsaac, those worries amount to nothing but a distant memory. The ... see all copies from $16.21! new only from $16.21!
