I think this may have been the first of the “Comhaltas Champions” recordings, released in 1976. I’ll comment more later.

Belated correction - ignore first comment. There was a tour LP in 1973 - posted here elsewhere. This group toured in 1975, according to “Treoir” magazine at the time, but the LP seems to have been released the following year in 1976.
