For Love and Ten: what on earth are these versions????

High smile

I have mp3's of these 2 oddities:

Jill Jones' For Love (Extended Version), which lasts 10:31 and is NOT the 7:24 4-Play Remix

Madhouse's en (Remix), which lasts 6:48 and is NOT the 7:13 Perfect Mix

None of these are listed anywhere, neither as maxi-single releases, nor promo releases, nor even as unreleased/bootlegged tracks! I can't find them on Princevault.com, i can't find them on Discogs.com, i can't find them on Borisfishpaw's list of released songs, i can't find them on Scififilmsnerd's list of recording sessions. A-ny-where!

Both could be fakes, but i don't see why someone would edit the 7:13 Perfect Mix down to become a 6:48 track, and the Jill Jones track really sounds genuine: unsually it's quite obvious when an extended song is a fake because the editing is poorly handled and because the extended parts sound like they've just been taken here and pasted there, but here the extention sounds very authentic and i could swear there are additionnal sounds that aren't on the 4-Play remix and don't sound amateurish.

But i fail to see how these versions, if authentic, could have escaped everyone but me before.

Someone knows something that i don't?

There was a "Bonus Beats" version of "For Love" on the 12" as well. Could someone have mixed them together to make the longer track?
