If you like that sort of thing...
I just happen to.

Marriner/Academy. The oboist is Celia Nicklin, and she has a beautiful sound. The LP on the Argo label also has VW's Concerto Grosso and Warlock: Capitol Suite, Serenade For Strings. Both playing and sound are excellent, as is the music.
It's on this 2 CD set (used at $1.24 plus media mail shipping on Amazon)
The Ravelian 2nd mov't is worth the price of admission.
Though I think Chris is right, there is only one RVW oboe concerto, I'm interested to hear the MacMillan. New oboe concertos are not all that common, unfortunately. I'm proud to say I worked with a new music group that performed a good one by the Lithuanian composer Osvaldas Balakauskas. We didn't release commercial recordings, alas, but you can hear that work on a BIS release.
I think the other oboe concerto on that new Harmonia Mundi SACD recording is by Macmillan (who is also the conductor on this recording). And, for sure, I do like this work. (BTW, I'm not seeing the graphic anymore on your post.)
I had the pleasure of playing it (i.e., the Vaughan Williams in its orchestral reduction) a few years ago at the yearly UC Berkeley Concerto Competition. There were a couple of tricky rhythmic spots in the last movement, but overall its a very satisfying, evocative piece.
which makes for the plural 'Concertos'.
. . . so I was guessing what the reference was.
Sometimes links just don't work?
