This is the earliest Clannad album still in print as we write this in 1993, because their first album, entitled simply Clannad, hasn't yet been re-released. It's also one of the most traditional ones, even though it was considered experimental for the times. It showcases Maire's harping skills, on O'Carolan's Eleanor Plunkett, and of course her vocals on the several beautiful Gaelic songs, plus their trademerk ensemble work. 1987.

Clannad 2 is the second studio album by Irish folk group Clannad. It was released in 1975.
