The show you're talking about is usually referred to as the "Live 'n' Kickin'" video, and actually aired on Showtime (not HBO). The concert was taped at the Universal Amphitheatre in Los Angeles in 1982, in support of Springfield's then-current 1982 album, "Success Hasn't Spoiled Me Yet" (not "Working Class Dog"). Unfortunately, the video was never released commercially, so pre-recorded copies do not exist; however, dupes made from the original 1982 TV broadcast do turn up on eBay fairly often. Also, you can trade w/ other RS fans for that video over on the message board at his official web site, for which I've provided a link below...
