and a quad LP w/ the original different art. It is the same music. When I went and ordered mine from Dublin I soon thereafter ordered albums from almost every single artist in the liner notes. Then more from the next batch of liner notes.
I now have 500 LPs and did have 700+ CDs of all kinds of Irish, Celtic, Welsh, English Scottish music similar for the most part to everything on those CDs you linked to.
There are videos of Emmy and The Everlys & all the rest playing with these Irish cats.
This was a BBC TV show.
Seems that Amazon UK has 2 left of the originals

ARIOUS ARTISTS "Bringing it All Back Home" Hummingbird HBCD0026

On the surface 'Bringing it All back Home' appears to be a straight re-issue, and repackage of the long available 1991 release from the BBC series of the same name. That is until you dig a little deeper. Gone is Liam O'Flynn's moody rendition of "A Stor Mo Chroi". In addition two new tracks are drafted in to replace 'The Lee Valley String Band', and one of Micheal O'Suilleabhain's contributions. Despite the changes, this remains a consummate collection detailing the enormous scope of Irish traditional music. Newly subtitled 'The Influence of Irish Music' the album contains some of the most spellbinding, and groundbreaking musicianship available on any compilation of Celtic music. Artists as diverse as Emmylou Harris and the Everly Brothers (yes it's true!) sit happily alongside such mainstays of the Irish scene as Donnal Lunny, and De Dannan.

Originally, the TV series was conceived to show how 'resilient, adaptable and above all enduring 'the nature of Irish music is'. Such was the quality of the program that it also spawned a number of copies, the most enduring being the 'Transatlantic Sessions'. Comprising 36 tracks, this release makes a valuable compendium of Irish traditional music, which hasn't dated one iota during its ten years on the market. Van Morrison points out on the rear sleeve 'I have a theory that soul music originally came from Scotland and Ireland'. I just don't know who'll break this news to Aretha Franklin.

  The Valley Entertainment 3-CD set, according to VE 's Web site (to which I linked in my earlier response, above) has the complete song list of the original BBC compilation, plus extra cuts. Thus, there apparently are three choices to consider: The Hummingbird release, which according to Keith Whitham has some deletions and substitutions, the 2-disc set you've had, and the 3-disc set from Valley
  
  What to do?
