breda smyth recordings?

Hi,
I'd like to know if there are some whistle recordings by Breda Smyth... I mean, I wanted to buy one of the 2 cds, but I found out that the music in them is not...traditional as I like.
So...do you know how to find and buy (or download :)) something "good and folk"?

for versatility, you can hear her fiddle playing on just about every track on the live-from-Kinvara pub session recording by the Lahawns, "Live at Winkes."
