In the 1993 book 'In Session Tonight (the Complete Radio 1 Recordings)' by Ken Garner (p228)...
This was first broadcast 1971-02-05, on Alan Blacks' 'Sounds of the Seventies'.
Four songs were recorded: They've Started Complaining, A Boat in the Morning Mist, Spanish OD, Best Suit.
Produced by John Muir.
Engineered by John White.

In the liner notes for "Retribution" (CD issue 2005 Walhalla 90355),
Morton Smith (London 1995) states :
One of the pieces, called "Best suit", was also recorded in January, 1971 for BBC Radio 1's 'Sound Of The Seventies' when listeners were treated to a full concert by this remarkable outfit.

It is entirely possible (bearing in mind that "Retribution consisted of only 5 tracks) that 4 songs was the "full concert"

"Spanish OD" currently on Youtube by the taper, not known which shnid
"They've started complaining" currently on Youtube by the taper, not known which shnid

All 4 tracks are now available from a different source recording on Youtube (with audible static in places)
.
