The Chieftains - which CDs have the best sound?

I have a few CDs of the Chieftains and love their music. The only one of mine that has truly good sonics is "James Galway & The Chieftains/Over the Sea to Skye," RCA 60424-2-RC. I'd like to get more of their stuff but, audiophile that I am, prefer to get the better sounding ones. Please recommend any that you know of that really sound good, or those of other groups that do similar Irish music and are especially well recorded. Thanks.

Tears of stone is outstanding sonically. There are a lot of different guest singers such as Diana Krall, Loreena McKennitt, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Coors etc, etc. Beautiful sounding female vocals. Enjoy!

THE LONG BLACK VEIL on MoFi Gold CD [Cat.# UDCD 762]. Excellent sonics and features lead vocals by Sting, Mick Jagger, Sinead O'Conner, Van Morrison, Mark Knopfler, Ry Cooder, Marianne Faithfull, Tom Jones, and the Rolling Stones. Not too pricey either...I think that I paid $35- or less 2 or 3 months ago.

DOUBLE WOW!!!
