More Music Lab questions

[Nicholas]

I suspect something went wrong with MLD 009 A, How Can You Mend A Broken Heart - Glen Miller's cut is very different to Freddie McGregor's : Freddie McGregor is reggae, while the other is a soul ballad.
It also applies to the 7" release.

About the coupling of Music Lab 10" sides : I have the original Going To Zion (MLD 002 A) c/w What Kind Of World (MLD 004 B). Maybe there were alternative couplings on other original Music Lab 10"s, but I can't tell.
AFAIK, the re-issues combine sides with the same matrix number (A/B).

MLD 009-A: we show actual artist Glen Miller, miscredit to Freddie McGregor

MLD 002 - you are correct in this pairing N., I have this one and just checked....interestingly the label is from Musik City address in Long Island - I wonder if this was a later reissue, I think I bought it around 1990.

I have yet to go through my own collection of 10s and 12s to verify their RKR listings, never have had the time so will do that now, starting with Studio One!

the other mismatch is the pairing

Jackie Mittoo and Brentford Rockers Ghetto Organ (Sidewalk Doctor) MLD 002-B
b/w
Jay Tees and the Sound Dimension Come To Me MLD 004-A

That sounds strange to me... I never doubted it's Freddie McGregor...
So Glen Miller did it twice, once in soul style and once in reggae ? The voices are very different...
