Hi Nigel
There is a show available from December 1984 on the Peel Wikia featuring the ICA set but was part of a tape collection recorded on AM radio and this may be the source of the YouTube videos.
There is nothing showing on the BBC International list of In Concerts which are available for rebroadcast on other radio stations. 
I take it you have tried the BBC direct? I have seen some ICA shows rebroadcast on 6Music so it is entirely possible they have a copy.
Regarding sessions then again I would try the BBC though I have three of the first and two of the second session in FM quality 
Stuart.
