See: http://www.mdt.co.uk/vaughan-williams-poisoned-kiss-deutsche-staatsphilharmonie-rheinland-pfalz-karl-heinz-steffens-capriccio.html

All, by my reckoning, previously released on CD.  I am only aware of one previous recording of each of the Fantasia on Sussex Folk Tunes and the Bucolic Suite.

Correct, AFAIK. Andrew his younger brother Julian Lloyd Webber did the premiere of the Fantasia on Sussex Folk Tunes:

and the jolly Bucolic Suite is on Dutton. There are two recordings of Muir Mathieson's adaptation of the Three Portraits from The England of Elizabeth (by Previn and Penny, I prefer Previn's) and one or two more of the Poisoned Kiss Overture.

What surprises me, is the dating of the Fantasia: 1924/25, according to the advertorial. Is this a new insight, or simply a mistake? Thus far, it has always been dated 1929 or 1930, if I recall well.

… music is not only an `entertainment’, nor a mere luxury, but a necessity of the spiritual if not of the physical life, an opening of those magic casements through which we can catch a glimpse of that country where ultimate reality will be found.  RVW, 1948

Perhaps Julian Lloyd Webber, not Andrew
