I think it possible that it could've sold very well, so why veto that?
listening to the audio of a concert is a very different experience. the Central Park concerts are iconic because we can SEE Diana on stage, menacing clouds all around. her chiffon cape and hair blowing dramatically in the wind. the CP stuff is really more about the visual than the audio. her performances are ok but nothing magical. given the stunning quality of her vocals on the Evening With lp or the HBO special which eventually ended up on VHS, the CP concert isn't her strongest.
