Think there's a couple of factors that go into it:
Thinkin back to my Music Business courses back in the day I think it depends on whether the Executive Producer wants to pay the editors to spend all the time to blur out the logo, or just pay up a royalty fee to use the trademarked logo. For the full Chicago concert it would've taken a good amount of time to blur out the logo in the hour long special. Not to mention it would've taken away from the final product and distracted viewers atleast a little. Plus, probably a bigger budget than whoever threw together the interview.
Plus then I think including it in the deluxe albums you probably have to settle some sort of fee for mass producing & distributing it. Atlantic Records (and I think Universal Music was the distributor) wants as much $$ from album sales as possible to go directly to them, without having to dish out however much per album or some flat fee for using a trademarked logo.
