Unfortunately, I can't get the above command to work for the Andy Kershaw mp3.

Here is the log info:

C:\Program Files (x86)\get_iplayer>get_iplayer --type=radio 
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio3/world-music/zimbabwe-1988.shtml --force
get_iplayer v2.79, Copyright (C) 2008-2010 Phil Lewis

You still have old versions of get_iplayer and rtmpdump, so my first suggestion would be to get the latest Windows installer and do a full reinstall, then try again. I don't have an old version at hand to check, but I know the current version works. If you can't do that for some reason, you could run with --verbose to see if any more useful information is logged about the rtmpdump error.

I am using Windows 7. VLC player seems to pop up for a split second and then 
closes.

That happens because when the flashaudio stream fails to download, get_iplayer falls through and attempts to download the rtsp stream, which is handled by VLC, but that croaks as well. You wouldn't want the rtsp stream, anyway. You can add --modes=flashaudio so that the rtsp stream is excluded entirely.
