Question re Celtic/Irish/Chieftains music

This is a question for someone knowledgeable about Celtic/Irish toe-tappin' music of the kind played by The Chieftains. If you could have only one or two CDs of this music, the absolutely indispensable, desert-island choices you couldn't live without, what would they be? (And of course it would be nice if they were well engineered and had great sound.) Thanks.

The Putumayo collection is really nice. They also have a collection called Women of the World Celtic that is great. Also worth listening to is most anything from the band Solis, especially releases before their most recent release. I seem to remember that Enya was a vocalist with them (could be wrong). Try Clannard too.
I prefer woman vocal celtic as you can see.
