Here are another 10 albums I think people new to Celtic and Irish music would like

21. Mary Black: Song for Ireland An early offering from Mary with the title track being one of the most haunting Irish anthems of modern times

22. Dolores Keane: The best of.. Dolores is one of Ireland greatest singers here with a collection of Irish and contemporary material including a very original rendition of Let it Be recorded with DeDannan
23. A Woman's Heart: Volumes 1 and 2 Here is a collection of both old and new songs sung by some of the finest Irish woman singers including Mary Black, Sinead Lohan, Maura O Connell and Sinead O Connor . There are also tunes from Sharon Shannon
24. Bill Whelan: Riverdance: Music from the Show Most purist traditional fans agree this isn't traditional Irish music but this is certainly inspired by all that is good in Irish music. This album is part of a worldwide phenomenon, which has made Celtic music and dance hugely popular worldwide

25. Solas: Solas This US based band featuring Seamus Egan have become hugely popular both at home and in Europe and this album shows off their fine playing talents with the vocals of Karen Casey

26. Dervish: At the end of the day This is the third album by Dervish and most agree that's it's the best with fine vocals by Cathy Jordan . This album also features an appearance by Swedish band Vasen
27. Andy Irvine and Paul Brady After Planxty split the two former band members made this classic album of tunes and songs and has earned its place in the collection of any self respecting traditional music fan.
28. Planxty: Cold Blow and the rainy night This was Planxty's last album before they split and is rich with the experience of all the musicians including a return appearance of Donal Lunny who had left the band and Christy Moore at his softest and best on the title track.
29. The Bothy Band: Out of the Wind into the Sun One of the best Irish traditional bands ever featuring musicians who are now solo artists and almost all legends in their own right.
30. Vinnie Kilduff: The Boys from the Blue Hill For a great introduction to the Irish whistle, although Vinnie is something of a multi-instrumentalist as well. Vinnie is also a talented editor and composer.
