BRIEF HISTORY Ever wondered why everyone seemed to have the bootleg of the Dallas date of the Blond Ambition Tour in edited, but absolutely lovely audio quality? Well, that's because it was specially recorded for a radio broadcast, to be sent around the US Radio Networks for broadcast to their audiences. The broadcast was simultaneously aired on the weekend of August 27th 1990, three weeks after the tour had ended.
All the radio stations which were taking part in the simulcast were sent a triple LP set of the tour split over six sides of vinyl.  As the networks were commercially funded it meant that the tour was split into little bite-size chunks of mostly two-song sections and then the companies which had paid for advertising during the show had their 30 second or 60 second advertisements played.
Westwood One required all shows to either be returned after broadcasting or to be destroyed (and for the radio station to sign an affidavit confirming this).  Obviously, as with anything potentially valuable, this didn't happen and a handful of the sets escaped the radio station recycling bins and made it out to collectors.
