When I offered Brian my Sheffield 74 recording last year, he said "Ooh. I don't think we've got that".
Of course, his memory ain't the best, but at least the comment would suggest they don't have them all....

Interesting...it would also seem to suggest they had a number of other ones, or maybe even a good number of others. There's a quote from Brian in the Larry Pryce or George Tremlett Queen book (can't remember offhand) where he tells the interviewer he could play them tapes of Smile to illustrate a point on what their sound was like at that time; presumably not just the Smile E.P. songs. and maybe even live shows?
btw, did you get your tape of Sheffield to Brian?

Hey Pittrek, why do you say these recordings don't exist anymore? Are you referring to the ones recorded by John Harris or others?
Wish I remember the exact source but I remember reading an interview with Brian where he said that most (?) of the existing recordings were taped over with other recordings
