I would be interested as well
I got "The Royal Welch Fusiliers" 1689 to 1989 To Beat of The Drum Bandmaster WO 1 EG Mooney it's a CD they where on sale at the B/ham Tatoo.
We recorded that one in Crick Howel Gym for the Tercentenary (using Bandleader records and Jed Curse as producer).
I thought they would be fairly easy to locate as we used to get people contacting the band office asking for them and I used to put them onto Bandleader, but I am not sure they would keep a CD that old (we made it in 1989).
However when the regimental band system ended and the band turned into the Corps of Army Music the old CD/Tape box wouldn’t have been needed any more (I had left by then) and I assume that the CD's/tapes would have gone to the PRI. They may have ended up in RHQ or in the museum.
The only links I have found remotely related are:

The first has a couple of tracks that are on this cd, its the best I can find at the moment.
I'm pretty sure they have CD's at RHQ Wrexham. Ring 01978 264521 and ask Sue there in the office. Have you also tried the RWF Museum in Caernarfon there was a selection there on sale when I visited last.

Stu Brunton's completely correct I've just used www.discurio.com to look and there are 2 RWF band recordings there that will be of use to Bri Coates. Good call mate an excellent web site.

They have them in abundance in the PRI here in Cyprus although only in tape cassette at the moment. There are no CD'S but i do have a copy that i could burn on cd.
