The 70's stuff is true Irish Folk music, so if that is what you are looking for, then have at it. The 80's brought out a more lush sound. They are the sister and brother of Enya, as well as two cousins (?). Another one I have recently discovered is IONA. They have some Brits in the band, including the former bass player for KajaGooGoo, and old 80's band.
