| | The Chieftains: The Authorized Biography |
| | Add to that the Chieftains' magic of a music that is at once tightly arranged while leaving space for virtuoso improvisation. | | | Many would be contented to rest on reputations, but the Chieftains have constantly striven for new interpretations, new boundaries while staying true to the roots of their music. | | | The Chieftains always strive for a perfect sound, and life can only be complicated when the six Irishmen are involved with a fifty-plus piece orchestra. |

| | This set was culled from the Chieftains' seventh, eighth and ninth outings on the Irish Claddagh label, recordings that were released in America on Columbia. | | | American Country music developed primarily from Scots-Irish and British folk tunes, rather than the Chieftains' more usual Gaelic sources, but there was considerable borrowing and one melody often turned up with multiple sets of lyrics. | | | This recording happened more or less by accident while the Chieftains were visiting Canada. |

| | The Chieftains, Down The Old Plank Road |
| | Maybe it's not a classic Chieftains' sound; but they are probably the most versatile band in the world today, able to play equally well with these country musicians, as with the Rolling Stones, Sinead O'Connor, Joni Mitchell -- all guests from previous albums. | | | But the music immediately lifts the listener's spirits with that high lonesome sound of Bela Fleck's banjo, Jeff White, Tim O'Brien and John Hiatt all playing on the title track. | | | Down The Old Plank Road is subtitled the Nashville Sessions and just like their earlier album Another Country, this one seeks to track the Irish influence in American country music. |

I would recommend this only if you are diehard Chieftains fan and also would like to listen to some mellow non-holiday music. | | | Opening with a haunting a capella rendition of Silent Night, and continuing with delightful lilting Celtic tunes, joyful gospel, sacred chant, and grand orchestral pieces, this album is a journey around the globe, singing in a dozen languages and musical traditions. | | | I am a big Chieftains fan, but this CD has none of that Chieftains sound. |

| | The Chieftains: The Chieftains 7 / The Chieftains 9: Boil the Breakfast Early - PopMatters Music Review |
| | While countless Irish bands have made their mark on modern music, the Chieftains have stayed true to the ideals of traditional Irish folk music. | | | On these two albums, there's little to indicate the wanderlust and cross-pollination that would typify the Chieftains in later years, but 7 immediately lays their strengths out for all to see. | | | The band's approach is the same, with their music no less steeped in Irish history and just as expertly played, but Malloy's presence lends an intangible muscle to the Chieftains. |

| | Sound judgment - The Chieftains |
| | Ireland's most popular traditional music ensemble, the Chieftains, has long had a knack for finding common threads between the music of many cultures, and now it has set its sails southeast for Spain. | | | "Santiago" serves as a reminder that the members of the Chieftains are among music's most accomplished international envoys, speaking that universal language as eloquently as anyone. | | | The influence of Spanish sounds on traditional Mexican music is clear throughout, and Linda Ronstadt and Los Lobos link up with the Chieftains to open your ears to the commonality Ireland shares with Mexico. |
