Track 3-10 "Midnight Lady" is listed as the single A-Side (WIP 6105). However, it really is an instrumental backing track, which is one minute longer than the version which was released as the single. This version appears to be the backing track which was recorded at Island Studios and which was referenced in the booklet provided with [r3686495], rather than the single which was produced by Shadow Morton and recorded at Ultra-Sonic Studios on Long Island.
