I'll be back to finish this, surprised it wasn't already here, so this is a quick addition. The 'gan ainms' are old standards that just need confirming, naming, and then making sure they link up.
James Brown
1.) Irish Jigs & a Reel (Zonophone Twin 716)
4.) The Thistle Schottische
6.) Miss Drumond Of Perth
9.) Irish Jigs (Zonophone Twin 1150)
14.) The Rosa Polka
W.F. Cameron
2.) Flowers Of Edinburgh
The Wypers, Peter & Daniel
3.) Stranger March
7.) Silverton Polka
12.) The 79th Highlanders March / The Champion March
15.) Roll Her On The Hill / Soldier's Joy / Clean PeaStrae / The Fairy Dance
17.) The Dancing Dustman Two Step
22.) The Lion Quadrilles, Figure 4
24.) The Doon The Burn March
William Hannah
5.) Pibroch O Donald Dhu
20.) The Duke Of Perth
George 'Pamby' Dick
8.) The Boston Bells Barn Dance
16.) The Stirling Castle Strathspey
25.) Irish Reels
Jack Williams
10.) The Queen Mary Waltz
18.) Bit O'Blarney
Peter Leatham
11.) Shufflin' Samuel
13.) A Hornpipe Medley
19.) The Laird O Drumblair
21.) Sammie's Schottische
1.) Irish Jigs ~ the first one is "Páidín Ó Reafartaigh"
However, I've been here before, having entered a very large multi-version take with this name, one with history, that got axed, and after an immense amount of work linking it up to its many shorter relatives. This one is in 3-parts, and isn't already on this site. I may play it safe and give the transcription for it here in the comments? I might risk getting it axed again?
I dunno on the cd version, but on my loved and worn LP ( learnt my first strathspey from it, Miss Drummond of Perth...), The Flowers of Edinburgh are followed by the "Old Grey Cat"...

The second jig seems to be a 2-part version of "The Jig of Slurs", but I'm still looking...
