I'm surprised there was never a formal release of these

Indeed,
I never saw one of the webcasts or attended one of the gigs because I was just 10 years old back then and I live in Belgium.So I never realised what a special thing the Spectacular tour was!There are a lot of video clips on YouTube, but I'm not really satisfied with the audio and videos.I read on different sites that the videos of the webcasts weren't of great quality but I wonder whether the audio was good?
Some gigs are welcome, if they exist of course and if there are people who captured the audio.

thanks for making me feel old, ldk17
quality of the webcasts was crap, both video and audio. the youtube stuff is the best you'll get. my recollection is also that the feed was broken for a couple days towards the end of the '80s portion of the run, but since those are the sparks albums nobody likes anyway i don't think anybody minded terribly much.

The unpopular albums are kind of the shows I'm most interested in, to see what the band managed to do with these songs that even they probably think are shit now
I live in the uk but I was still unable to get to any of the shows & wasn't aware there was a webcast :-(

I see people sharing some of these on slsk but who knows where they got them from; could just be rips from the webcast.
